How to Make Irresistible Creamy Million Dollar Cream Cheese Dip
In a medium bowl, beat together the mayonnaise, cream cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Gently fold in the crumbled bacon, shredded extra-sharp cheddar, slivered almonds, and sliced scallions. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Transfer the dip to your favorite serving dish. Top with the reserved bacon, cheddar, almonds, and scallions for an appealing presentation.
Serve immediately with your choice of dippers, or cover and refrigerate for up to three days.
Pair with crunchy crackers, fresh veggies, or toasted baguette slices.
Notes
Bacon should be cooked until crispy. Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing. Serve with a variety of dippers for best experience.
