- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the cream cheese and microwave on high for 20-30 seconds to soften it, if needed.
Step 2
In a small skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Remove from heat.
Step 3
In the bowl with the cream cheese, mix in the sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, sautéed garlic in butter, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Step 4
Transfer the mixture to a microwave-safe serving dish and microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the cheese is fully melted and the dip is hot and creamy.
Step 5
Garnish with additional dried parsley or shredded cheese, if desired, and serve immediately with crackers, bread, or your favorite veggies for dipping.
