Ingredients

Scale

Cheese and Dairy

  • 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese brick, grated
  • 8 ounces whipped cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream

Seasonings and Mix-ins

  • 1 ounce ranch dressing seasoning packet
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 4 green onions, diced

Instructions

  1. Grate the cheddar cheese: Start by grating your 8-ounce block of sharp cheddar cheese. Freshly grated cheese melts much better and creates a smoother dip compared to pre-shredded cheese, which often contains fillers.
  2. Mix the base: In a mixing bowl, combine the grated cheddar, whipped cream cheese, ranch dressing seasoning packet, Dijon mustard, and sour cream. Stir until the mixture is well combined and smooth. For ease, you can use a hand mixer if the cream cheese is stiff.
  3. Fold in the green onions: Gently fold the diced green onions into the cheese mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed without mashing them.
  4. Chill or heat: Choose your serving preference. For a cold dip, refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld. If serving warm, heat the dip gently in a small saucepan over low heat until the cheddar melts completely. Alternatively, you can keep it warm in a crockpot on low, stirring occasionally to maintain smoothness and creaminess.

Notes

  • Using freshly grated cheddar cheese prevents a grainy texture common with pre-shredded cheese.
  • The dip can be served cold or warm depending on preference.
  • When warming, use low heat to avoid burning or separating the cheese.
  • Perfect accompaniment to soft or hard pretzels, crackers, or veggie sticks.
  • Can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
