Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise in a bowl with a hand mixer until fluffy.
  2. Add remaining ingredients and stir until smooth.
  3. For the best flavor, refrigerate 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • Optional Add-Ins include jalapenos, pimentos, chopped artichokes, bacon bits.
  • This dip can be mixed in a food processor if desired. Pulse just until combined. If you don't have a food processor or hand mixer, mix well with a spoon.
  • This dip will last up to a week in the fridge (as long as the dairy used is fresh). Leftovers make a great filling for celery sticks or can be melted and tossed with pasta.
