Author Notes
Rich and buttery, deeply flavorful and so creamy, this dip is perfect with the salty crunch of a potato chip. It’s like your Grandmother's sour cream and soup mix onion dip – but better. And while it takes a few more minutes to make than the packaged dump and stir, it’s really so simple. Just cook the onions until wonderfully golden, and then whip them into a creamy base of mayonnaise, cream cheese and sour cream.
