Instructions

Caramelize onions

  1. To a large skillet, add butter and heat over MED LOW heat.
  2. Once butter is melted, add diced onions and 1/4 tsp of the salt then cook, stirring occasionally, for 25 minutes, or until soft and golden brown (caramelized).
  3. Set aside to cool.

Combine

  1. To a mixing bowl, add sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, sugar, remaining salt, and black pepper.
  2. Whisk together until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add chives, bacon, and caramelized onions and stir well to combine.

Chill

  1. Cover the mixing bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours.

Serve

  1. Serve chilled, garnished with additional bacon pieces and chives if desired, with chips or whichever dippers you prefer.

Notes

  • I've estimated this dip will serve 6, but the exact serving size is up to you.
