Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup crumbled cooked bacon
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions (scallions)
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • For serving: Tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks

Instructions

  1. Prepare the bacon: Cook bacon until crisp. Drain well and crumble into small pieces. Set aside.
  2. Toast the almonds: Place sliced almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, about 3 to 5 minutes. Watch closely to prevent burning. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Combine base ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and mayonnaise until completely smooth.
  4. Add seasonings and cheese: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until everything is evenly combined.
  5. Fold in mix-ins: Gently fold in the crumbled bacon and half of the chopped green onions.
  6. Chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes. This helps the flavors meld.
  7. Top and serve: Before serving, sprinkle the remaining green onions and the toasted sliced almonds over the top of the dip for texture.
  8. Serve this easy party appetizer with your favorite chips or dippers.

Notes

  • Toasting the almonds is key for the best flavor and crunch in this bacon almond dip. Do not skip this step.
  • You can make this Neiman Marcus Dip recipe ahead of time. Cover and chill for up to 2 days. Add the topping just before serving.
  • If you prefer a slightly tangier flavor, substitute 1/4 cup of the mayonnaise with sour cream.
