A savory onion cheese dip is the perfect start to a great meal. Consider making this dip for your next party or just to enjoy at home.
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8-by-8 oven-proof pan. If you do not have a pan that size, use a smaller, deeper pan rather than a larger pan for the dip. The dip may overcook if you use a larger pan than necessary.
2. Chop the onions finely and mince the garlic. Saute them in butter over medium heat until they are tender, then remove them from the stove. Pour the mixture into a bowl once the onions and garlic have cooled a little.
3. Add the cheese, mayonnaise and hot sauce and mix until blended. Pour the mixture into an oven-proof pan. If you want, add an extra layer of cheese and onions or top the mix with dried red chili pepper flakes.
4. Bake the dip for 20 minutes. The dip is ready when the top layer has turned light brown. If you decide you want more cheese on top, add another layer after the dip has browned and pop the dish back in for 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
5. Stir the dip in the oven-proof pan and pour it into a serving bowl. If you want, you can arrange crackers around the corner of the dip to make it look more attractive.
