How to Make Bacon Cheese Dip

This dip uses really simple everyday ingredients you probably already have on hand!

• Cream cheese – use room temperature cream cheese to make it incorporate easily.
• Cheddar cheese – Any cheddar or similar grated cheese will work – but you do NOT want to use store-bought grated cheese. When you buy grated cheese from the store they have preservatives and anti-caking additives that can make them melt unevenly – so always grate your cheese fresh.
• Parmesan cheese
• Cooked bacon
• Mayonnaise 
• Garlic powder
• Onion powder
• Paprika

• Prep. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix cheese. Add cream cheese, 1 cup cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, most of the bacon, mayo, and spices to a large bowl or stand mixer and mix until fully combined.
• Bake. Transfer the mixture to an 8×8-inch baking dish and top with the remaining cheddar cheese and bacon and bake for 20 minutes.

Tips to Perfect Cheddar Bacon Dip & FAQs

To get perfect crunchy bacon, I like to cut it with kitchen scissors when still cold, then pan fry until brown and crispy.

Bacon is easier to cut when cold – and we find it crisps up more evenly to cut before cooking instead of crumbling after cooking whole slices of bacon.

Let bacon rest on paper towels to drain off excess grease before adding to cheese dip – letting the grease drain off will help your bacon get extra crunchy and perfect for this cheesy dip!
