Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 Garlic bulb
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Asiago cheese, finely grated
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon Chives, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the top off the garlic bulb to expose the individual cloves. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the garlic, then wrap it in aluminum foil.
Roast the garlic in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden. Let it cool slightly before handling.
Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and mash them with a fork until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and mashed roasted garlic. Mix well until creamy and smooth.
Stir in the grated asiago cheese, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until evenly incorporated.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake the dip at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until bubbly and slightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped chives, if desired.
Serve warm with crackers, toasted baguette slices, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
