How To Make Cream Cheese Bacon Dip:
Mix up your bacon and cook it up; fry it in a small pan. This will be a baked dip, so cook the bacon, but don’t overcook it since it will bake in the oven more.
Once the bacon is done, drain it of grease and place the bacon to dry on a plate with a paper towel.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and spray your baking dish with a nonstick pan; I used a Rachel Ray 1.5-Quart Dish to make this. I love her cookware also doubles for serving dishes.
In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. I used a spatula to mix it. The cream cheese took a bit to blend in well.

Add into the bowl your bacon, parsley, and minced garlic to the mixture and combine well.
Next, add a 1 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese into the mixture and mix it all well together.
Spray your dish with a nonstick spray.
Use a spatula to put the dip mixture into the dish and smooth it out evenly.
Top the dip with the last 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese.

Place in oven and bake for 20 minutes.

This dip is amazing, hot or cold!! We did a spread with our Ritz Crackers, Coca-Cola, and Creamy Cheddar Bacon Dip for the early game, and it was a huge hit!!

How To Store Cheddar Bacon Dip
If you have any left, store the dip in an airtight container in the fridge. The dip will keep for about two days.

I’m saving this for our Super Bowl party. It will go over great and looks so easy to make!
I love ritz crackers, I bet this dip is super yummy with them too.
Looks like a good dip to have for the big game. The bacon in it is sure to be a hit.
looks great I think I will make for Christmas for those that can’t wait to eat. Here is one that is so simple. 1 softened block of cream cheese and 1 bottle of Pic A Pepper Sauce. Just pour over the softened cream cheese let it flow over the sides and ends as much as you want, it looks like chocolate running over it. It is soooo good,
That sounds amazing! I have never heard of Pic A Pepper sauce, is that a brand of hot sauce?
Hello! Can this be put in a crockpot or is the oven the preferred method?
This looks delicious. It would be great for Superbowl!
I am wanting to try this recipe but what am I supposed to do with the 6 slices of bacon?
