Ingredients
16 oz cream cheese, softened
16 oz sour cream
1 packet (1 oz) Hidden Valley Ranch dry seasoning mix
1/2 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup green onions, sliced
Instructions
Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sour cream together with a hand mixer until smooth and fluffy.
Step 2: Stir in the ranch seasoning packet until thoroughly combined and no dry streaks remain.
Step 3: Gently fold in the crumbled bacon (reserve some for garnish), shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions.
Step 4: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let flavors meld.
Step 5: Before serving, garnish with the reserved bacon and extra green onions. Serve with crackers, bread, or veggies.
Notes
Always use full-fat cream cheese for the best texture. If the dip is too firm after refrigeration, let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
