Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup crumbled cooked bacon
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds (optional, for crunch)
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese and sour cream into a medium mixing bowl.
- Use an electric mixer or a sturdy spoon to beat the ingredients together until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions until they are evenly distributed throughout the dip base.
- If you are using almonds, gently fold them in now.
- Cover the bowl and chill the Million Dollar Dip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to blend.
- Serve your cold dip with your favorite crackers, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetable sticks.
Notes
- For an extra layer of flavor, you can add 1 packet of dry ranch seasoning mix to the dip base along with the cheese.
- If you need to serve this immediately, you can skip the chilling time, but the texture and flavor are best after chilling.
- You can prepare the bacon ahead of time to keep your prep time under five minutes.
