Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions (about 4)
  • 1/2 cup crispy crumbled bacon
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds
  • 1 garlic clove, pressed

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, sharp cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, crispy crumbled bacon, slivered almonds, and pressed garlic. Use an electric mixer for best results, but you can mix by hand if your cream cheese is softened enough.
  2. Chill the Dip: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This chilling period allows the flavors to meld together for a richer taste.
  3. Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish the dip with additional green onions and crumbled bacon before serving. Pair the dip with crackers, celery slices, or sliced baguette for a delightful appetizer.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is properly softened to ensure easy mixing and smooth texture.
  • For added crunch and flavor, toast the slivered almonds lightly before adding.
  • This dip can be made a day ahead and kept covered in the refrigerator.
  • Use sharp cheddar cheese for a bold flavor contrast.
  • If preferred, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt for a slightly tangier, lighter option.
