You can't beat a great dip recipe! And this Caramelized Onion Dip is so full of flavour and downright delicious. Great with a big bowl of chips, to serve with crackers, on bagels, sandwiches or even as a dip for a vegetable platter.
Peel and thinly slice the onions. Discard the onion skin.
Heat the butter in a large skillet set over medium to high heat. Add the onions and give a good stir around. Increase heat to high and brown the onions for about 5 minutes, stirring regularly. Reduce heat to medium low and continue to cook the onions for about 25 more minutes until they are soft and caramelized. Stir onions occasionally as they cook to avoid burning or sticking. Remove onions from the heat.
Place cooked onions on a large cutting board and roughly chop with a knife.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder and salt. Mix on high speed for about 2 minutes. Fold in the caramelized onions and fresh parsley. Combine well.
