Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2-3 small to medium sized onions, chopped (looking for about 2 1/2- 3 cups)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup real mayonnaise
- garlic powder to taste (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet melt the butter over medium heat. Add onions, salt, sugar, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Cook stirring very frequently for about 5 minutes then reduce heat to low and cook for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. The onions should be nicely browned and golden.
- In a medium sized bowl combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Add browned onions and mix until well combined. Taste and add in garlic powder if needed. I added in 1/4 teaspoon. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
Notes
- This recipe is adapted from Pinch Of Yum.
- I like to make this the day before so the flavors have a chance to combine.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- Serve with potato chips, cut veggies, and cubes of french bread.
