How to Make V's Southwestern Dip

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup mayonnaise. Mix well until smooth.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat), and a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  3. Gradually add the dry spice mixture to the sour cream and mayonnaise mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or preferably longer) to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. This step is key for the best flavor!
  5. Serve chilled with your favorite tortilla chips, vegetables (such as carrots, celery, bell peppers), or use as a topping for burritos, tacos, or baked potatoes.
