Ingredients

  • 2 large Yellow onions
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1.5 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
  • 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup Sour cream
  • 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Peel the onions and slice them into thin, even slices.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil.

Step 3

Once the butter is melted and sizzling, add the onions, kosher salt, and sugar.

Step 4

Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until they are deeply caramelized and golden-brown. Reduce the heat to medium-low if they start to brown too quickly.

Step 5

Once the onions are caramelized, remove them from the heat and let them cool for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Chop the cooled caramelized onions into smaller pieces and stir them into the cream cheese mixture.

Step 8

Add black pepper and garlic powder to the mixture and stir until everything is well combined.

Step 9

Transfer the dip to a serving dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Serve with chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables. Enjoy!
