Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
- 2 tablespoons dried minced onion
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise in a medium bowl. Mix until smooth.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped fresh chives, dried minced onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute all ingredients evenly.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dip for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, sprinkle the toasted sliced almonds over the top of the dip.
- Serve cold with your choice of crackers, tortilla chips, or vegetable sticks.
Notes
- Toast the sliced almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until lightly golden. Let them cool completely before adding them to the dip.
- For a thicker dip, substitute half of the sour cream with plain Greek yogurt.
- You can prepare this dip up to 24 hours in advance; add the almonds just before serving.
