Ingredients

Scale

Dip Base

  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Pickle Mixture

  • 1/2 cup chopped dill pickles
  • 1/4 cup pickle juice

Seasonings and Toppings

  • 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 cup finely crushed fried onions or fried pickle chips
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: In a medium bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth and well combined, creating a creamy dip base.
  2. Add Pickle Ingredients: Stir in the chopped dill pickles and pickle juice, which add tanginess and texture to the dip.
  3. Season the Dip: Mix in the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, and onion powder to infuse the dip with savory, zesty flavors.
  4. Incorporate the Crunch: Fold in the finely crushed fried onions or fried pickle chips, reserving a small amount to sprinkle on top before serving for extra crunch.
  5. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the dip and season with salt and pepper as needed to balance the flavors perfectly.
  6. Chill the Dip: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the dip to set.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, sprinkle the reserved crushed onions or pickle chips and add chopped fresh dill if desired. Serve chilled with chips, pretzels, or fresh vegetables.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, add more fried onions or pickle chips just before serving.
