Caramelized Onion Dip

Love this dip! Have made it several times. I sometimes sub half sour cream for mayo & add some spicy peppers to balance the sweetness of the carmelized onions. I suspect that the other reviewers did NOT carmelized the onions as needed. I usually do extra onions bc I like to have some on hand for casseroles & pizza. It normally takes at least an hour to caramelize 3 or 4 large yellow onions. U MUST b patient!!! Also everything must b room temp and beat sour cream, mayo (if using), & cream cheese with a mixer & not by hand.

Agree with another review, the cream cheese made the “dip” very thick. We spread it on crackers with a knife, too thick to use as a dip.

I should have listened to my gut instinct when I didn't see any comments despite over 1k reviews but if you're looking for that classic onion dip taste don't use this recipe. The cream cheese totally takes away the tang of the sour cream and is added calories for a worse dip. Nix the cream cheese and it's fine I guess.
