Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium (about 1 pound) Vidalia onions
- 8 ounces (softened) Cream cheese
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 cups (shredded) Sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon (optional) Hot sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (chopped, for garnish) Fresh parsley
- (for serving, optional) Crackers, chips, or baguette slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel and finely dice the Vidalia onions into small, even pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, hot sauce (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Stir in the diced Vidalia onions to evenly incorporate them into the cheese mixture.
Transfer the mixture into an oven-safe baking dish (an 8-inch round or similar size works well) and spread evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling around the edges.
Carefully remove the dip from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes.
Sprinkle the top with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve warm with crackers, chips, or baguette slices on the side.
