Description
This is the classic Million Dollar Neiman Marcus Dip recipe, a retro favorite known for its simple yet delicious combination of almond, bacon, and cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- 1/2 cup toasted slivered almonds
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, chopped green onions, and crumbled bacon.
- Gently fold in the toasted slivered almonds.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled with crackers, pita chips, or vegetable sticks.
Notes
- To toast slivered almonds, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden and fragrant. Watch them closely to prevent burning.
- For best results, use full-fat cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream.
- You can prepare this dip a day in advance for deeper flavor.
