Ingredients
- 0.5 cup sliced almonds
- 8 slices bacon
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 3 stalks green onions, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0 crackers or vegetables for serving
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the sliced almonds for 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Stir frequently to avoid burning. Set aside to cool.
Step 3
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain excess grease on a paper towel, then crumble the bacon into small pieces. Set aside.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Step 5
Add the crumbled bacon (reserving a small amount for topping), chopped green onions (reserving some for garnish), and toasted almonds (reserving a small portion for garnish) to the mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into a shallow oven-safe dish and spread it into an even layer.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the dip is heated through and bubbly around the edges.
Step 8
Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the reserved bacon, almonds, and green onions on top for garnish.
Step 9
Serve immediately with crackers, toasted bread, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
