Ingredients for Bacon And Cheese Dip

  • 8 slices bacon
  • 16 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • Cheddar Cheese
  • Half And Half
  • Worcestershire Sauce
  • Dried Onion Flakes
  • Dry Mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Hot Sauce

How to Make Bacon And Cheese Dip

  1. In a large bowl, combine 16 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1 cup mayonnaise, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  2. Pour the cheese mixture into a 6-quart slow cooker.
  3. Cook on low for 1 hour, or until the cheese is melted and the dip is smooth and creamy, stirring occasionally.
  4. While the dip is cooking, cook 8 slices of bacon until crispy. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
  5. After 1 hour, stir in the crumbled bacon. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed (add more salt, garlic powder, or onion powder to taste).
  6. Continue to cook on low for an additional 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Serve warm with your favorite dippers such as cubed French bread, tortilla chips, or crackers.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
