Ingredients
The following ingredients have 10 Servings
- 350 g / 12 oz bacon (, chopped)
- 250 g / 8 oz cream cheese (, softened)
- 1 cup sour cream ((preferably full fate))
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tsp garlic powder ((or sub with onion powder))
- 1 cup shredded tasty or cheddar cheese ((Note 1))
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese ((Note 1))
- 1 cup shallots / scallions (, chopped (~4 - 5 stalks))
- 1 round cob bread ((sourdough works best))
- 5 Jatz / Ritz or other plain savoury cracker (, crushed (Note 2))
- Oil spray
- Crackers (, chips, toasted bread)
Instruction
- Cook bacon in a non stick skillet / fry pan over high heat until browned. Transfer to paper towel lined plate to drain.
- Mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and garlic powder together in a heat proof bowl.
- Stir through most of the bacon, all the cheese and most of the shallots. Microwave on high for 3 minutes. The dip may look like the oil from the cheese has separated. Just stir well and it will come (and stay) together.
- If serving as is, pour into a serving bowl, top with remaining bacon and shallots.
- Serve with crackers, chips and the bread you pulled out to create the bread bowl (I toast it).
