Description
You need a crowd-pleasing appetizer that comes together instantly? This creamy, cheesy Million Dollar Dip, often called Neiman Marcus Dip, requires no cooking and uses just a few simple ingredients. It is the perfect game day snack or party dip.
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
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds (optional, for crunch)
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese and sour cream into a medium mixing bowl.
- Use a hand 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. Mix until everything is evenly distributed throughout the base.
- If you like extra texture, gently fold in the sliced almonds now.
- Cover the bowl and chill the Million Dollar Dip in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. This chilling time allows the flavors to blend properly.
- Serve your crowd-pleasing dip with your favorite crackers, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetable sticks.
Notes
- For an extra savory flavor, substitute 1/4 cup of the sour cream with dry ranch seasoning mix.
- If you are short on time, you can serve this dip after only 30 minutes of chilling, but the flavor deepens significantly after two hours.
- You can prepare the bacon ahead of time to make this a true 5-minute appetizer when guests arrive.
