Check out what my friends at My Recipes had to say about this awe-inspiring Gruyere Bacon Dip:
I fixed this for a wine-tasting party. I had three other hot dips. This was clearly the favorite – the slow cooker was entirely cleaned out. I followed the instructions pretty carefully. The bacon and green onions, I think, attracted attention just by their appealing aroma.
Honestly, this really is easy to make. I even used leftover bacon from breakfast and served it with plain crackers. It was a hit at a Holiday party and I can imagine it’d be the same at a Super Bowl gathering.
Ingredients
1/2 cup chopped onion
Pam Cooking spray
4 ounces shredded Gruyère cheese (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup Helmann’s mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon McCormick dry mustard
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (8-ounce) block fat-free Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
4 Thorn Apple Valley center-cut bacon slices, cooked and crumbled
Instructions:
Sauté the onion in a non-stick skillet for 5 minutes or until tender. Remove from heat.
Place onion in a 2 1/2-quart electric slow cooker coated with cooking spray. Add cheese and next 5 ingredients (through cream cheese). Stir until blended. Cover and cook on LOW for 1 1/2 hours or until cheese melts, stirring after 45 minutes. Top with green onions and bacon.
Quick Tip: The second time I made this, I used apple wood smoked bacon and it added a whole new dimension of flavor.
Thank you to My Recipes for this delicious dip recipe!
