How to Make Bacon Pimiento Cheese
- Cook 1/2 pound bacon in a large skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Crumble cooked bacon into small pieces.
- In a medium bowl, combine 16 ounces cream cheese (softened), 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 1 (4 ounce) can chopped pimientos (drained), 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon yellow mustard, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Gently stir in the crumbled bacon until well combined.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving. Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
