For years and years this Caramelized French Onion Dip was my favorite dip. It was my dip of choice for every party. Super Bowl, holiday party, BBQ, you name it, that dip was there. For about 5 minutes anyway, until it was all gobbled up. With it being such a family favorite, why I never thought to make a hot version and add some bacon to it before now is beyond me. But I will tell you one thing, I am sure glad I did.
Now I am not saying that the original is not as good as this hot version. Because I can still chow down on a bowl with a bag of Kettle Chips at my side. But I mean…
this dip has bacon.
And it’s hot and bubbly and melty. And it has a crispy Parmesan crust. And you spoon it onto garlicky toasted baguette slices.
And.
And.
And it’s freaking Iwanttoeattheentirebowlbymyselfinacornerandnotsharewithaynone delicious.
So whether you are in it for the Hawks, the Patriots, the commercials or Katy Perry, you should so totally have it in front of you on Super Bowl sunday. Trust me.

November 19, 2018 at 7:57 amI’ve made this a couple times and it is always a huge hit. My family tells me not to show up at any gatherings without the dip. I was wondering if this can be made ahead and how long ahead would it still be as delicious. Thinking I’s like to have it ready to go this Thanksgiving. Thanks.
