Ingredients

3 medium sweet onions
2 tablespoons butter
8 oz cream cheese softened
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Dice the onions into a medium dice.
3 medium sweet onions
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they start to soften, then turn the heat down to medium-low.
2 tablespoons butter
Cook the onions, stirring often, until they are a deep golden brown. If they start to stick or if it looks like they are drying out, add a splash of water. Once caramelized, (this will take about 45 minutes), remove from the heat.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Mix to combine.
8 oz cream cheese, 1 cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Add the caramelized onions and stir to combine. Taste, and add salt and pepper, to taste.
Salt and pepper
You can serve the dip right away, but I like to refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to let it set up slightly.

Notes

The cream cheese will make the dip set up more in the refrigerator than a traditional French onion dip. If it’s been stored in the refrigerator, et the dip out at room temperature for about 30 minutes and then stir before serving.
