This incredibly easy 3-Ingredient French Onion Dip is the ultimate crowd-pleasing party appetizer! Rich sour cream and velvety mayonnaise are combined with savory onion soup mix for a chilled, restaurant-quality snack that takes seconds to prepare.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 packet 1 ounce onion soup mix
Instructions
- Mix the Base: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise. Whisk them together thoroughly until the mixture is completely smooth, creamy, and well blended.
- Add the Flavor: Pour the packet of dry onion soup mix directly into the dairy base. Stir the mixture vigorously until the dehydrated onions and spices are fully evenly distributed throughout the bowl.
- Chill and Hydrate: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a fitted lid. Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the dehydrated onions to soften and the flavors to fully develop.
- Serve: Remove the bowl from the refrigerator and give the dip one final, gentle stir. Serve chilled alongside your favorite sturdy potato chips, crackers, or a platter of fresh vegetables!
Notes
- Pro-Tip: For the absolute best flavor development, try to use a full-fat sour cream and a high-quality, real egg mayonnaise! Low-fat or fat-free dairy alternatives contain high amounts of water that can make your final dip feel thin, soupy, and lacking in that signature richness.
