Scale
Ingredients
- 1 large yellow onion
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups grated Swiss cheese
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Peel the onion and cut it into quarters, then thinly slice each quarter to get fine strips.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, grated Swiss cheese, and sliced onions. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Bake: Transfer the combined mixture to a baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden brown.
- Serve: Remove the dip from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite crackers, chips, or vegetable dippers.
Notes
- For a slightly sweeter onion flavor, you can caramelize the onions in a pan before mixing.
- You can substitute Swiss cheese with cheddar for a sharper taste.
- Letting the dip cool slightly helps it set and makes it easier to scoop.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
