Three favorite flavors come together in this simple but amazing Cheddar Bacon Garlic Dip recipe, with cheddar cheese, bacon, and garlic, in a creamy cream cheese dip.
Cheddar Bacon Garlic Dip
Funny story about this dip recipe. It was originally a filling for one of those crescent pinwheel appetizers. I had made them and they were kind of meh. But I just couldn't keep my fingers out of the bowl for the filling. It was SO good. So I turned the filling into this Cheddar Bacon Garlic Dip recipe (it only had cream cheese in it, so it was way too stiff for dipping. I added in a little mayo and sour cream for the perfect consistency.), and now it's one of my favorite dips. So easy to make and super flavorful.
My husband always says it's best to keep it simple, and this Cheddar Bacon Garlic Dip is certainly simple (and the best, in my opinion!), with classic cheddar, bacon, and garlic, all mixed together in a creamy dip with cream cheese. Mmm. Serve with your favorite crackers.

Can I use bacon bits instead of bacon ?
Michelle says
If you don't want to cook it yourself, you can grab some real bacon pieces. They're usually right next to the bacon bits at the grocery store but it's actual bacon.
