Name: French Onion Dip
Prep time: 15 min
Total time: 1 h 25 min
Yield: 8 serving(s)
Ingredients: 4 tbsp. butter; 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced; 1/4 c. dry sherry; 2 tsp. fresh thyme leaves, roughly chopped; 1 (8-oz.) block cream cheese; 1/2 c. sour cream; 1/3 c. mayonnaise; 3/4 c. shredded Monterey jack, plus more for topping; 3/4 c. shredded Gruyère; Finely chopped chives, for serving; Baguette, for serving

Step 1Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion and season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and jammy, about 20 minutes.

Step 2Increase heat to medium-high, stir in sherry and thyme and simmer until almost completely reduced, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 3In a large bowl, stir together cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, and cheeses. Mix in caramelized onions and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking dish set on a small baking sheet and smooth top with a spatula. Top with more shredded cheeses.

Step 4Bake until bubbly and slightly golden, about 30 minutes. If you’d like the dip to develop a more golden top, broil on high for 2 minutes.

Step 5Serve with baguette on the side, for dipping.
