Description
A creamy, cheesy, and delicious dip that is perfect for any occasion and is a crowd-pleaser at parties.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup crumbled bacon
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Using a hand mixer or a sturdy whisk, blend the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
2. Stir in the ranch seasoning, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the creamy base.
3. Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to maintain the texture and prevent the cheese from becoming stringy.
4. Cover the dip and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld together.
5. Once the dip has had a chance to chill, serve it with your favorite dippers.
Notes
Leftover dip can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
For a warmer dip, you can reheat it in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between.
