Creamy, cheesy, and loaded with crack dip flavor! This 6-ingredient appetizer is served cold and ready in just 10 minutes. Good luck keeping it on the table.
Why It’s the Dip You Can’t Quit
- Flavor Overload! If you’re obsessed with my crack breakfast casserole or crack chicken sliders, just wait, this crack dip takes things to a whole new level of delicious!
- No Oven Needed: Perfect for hot days or last-minute parties, just mix, chill, and serve!
- Bacon Lovers’ Dream: Crispy bacon bits in every bite make this dip totally crave-worthy.
- Picnic & BBQ Star: Whether you’re poolside or it’s game day, this cool and creamy ranch dip is the first thing to vanish from the snack table!
Crack Dip Ingredients
- Bacon: I love using precooked bacon for convenience. Bacon bits also work, but nothing beats that real, crispy bacon flavor.
- Green Onion: A lot of other recipes only use green onions as a garnish. My recipe mixes the green onion into the dip to give it that savory flavor in every bite!
How to Make Crack Dip
Not only is this easy crack dip recipe perfectly creamy, but it’s cheesy and loaded with that irresistible ranch and bacon combo I know you’ll love. If you like this combo, you should try my poolside dip, million-dollar dip, and boat dip.
- Mix: In a large bowl, mix together sour cream, softened cream cheese, and ranch dressing mix using an electric hand mixer.
- Add the Bacon, Cheese, and Onion: Fold in the crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions.
- Serve: Enjoy right away or refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before serving to help the flavors meld.
- Garnish and Serve: Garnish with additional green onions, cheese, and chopped bacon, if desired. Enjoy with veggies, crackers, or potato chips!
Storage and Make-Ahead Instructions
- In the Refrigerator: Store leftover crack dip in an airtight container. Keep in the fridge for up to 4 days. Give it a quick stir before serving again! If needed, stir in a splash of milk if it seems too thick.
- Make Ahead: Crack dip gets even better when you make it ahead of time! Prep it the night before and let the flavors mingle overnight.
