Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup crumbled cooked bacon
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 cup chopped toasted almonds (optional)
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese and sour cream into a medium mixing bowl.
- Use an electric mixer or a sturdy spoon to combine the cream cheese and sour cream until the mixture is smooth and fully blended.
- Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- 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 one hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
- Serve your cold dip with your favorite crackers, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetables.
Notes
- For an extra layer of flavor, you can add one packet of dry ranch seasoning mix to the dip ingredients.
- If you need to serve this dip immediately, you can skip the chilling time, but the flavor is better after it rests.
- To toast almonds quickly, spread them on a dry skillet over medium heat and stir constantly for 3 to 5 minutes until fragrant. Watch them closely to prevent burning.
