Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into half-moons.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil. Once the butter has melted, add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 30-35 minutes, or until they are golden brown and caramelized. Reduce the heat if needed to prevent burning.
While the onions are caramelizing, mince the garlic cloves.
Add the minced garlic to the onions during the last 2 minutes of caramelizing. Stir and cook until fragrant, then remove the skillet from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
Once the onion mixture has cooled, chop the caramelized onions into smaller pieces for easier mixing, if desired. Fold the onions (and garlic) into the creamy mixture, ensuring even distribution throughout.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if using.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature with chips, veggies, or crackers.
