Ingredients

• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.75 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon White wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Milk

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sour cream. Stir until smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 2

Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to distribute the cheese evenly.

Step 3

Pour in the lemon juice and white wine vinegar. Stir well to combine and create a balanced tanginess.

Step 4

Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, sugar, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed throughout the dressing.

Step 5

Slowly add the milk, one tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly. Adjust the thickness of the dressing by adding more or less milk, depending on your preference (it should be creamy yet pourable).

Step 6

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add a pinch more salt, pepper, or sugar if needed for balance.

Step 7

Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
