Warm Cheesy, Bacon, and Ranch Dip

I made this for New Years and didn't know everyone would like it as much as they did so I didn't take a picture. BUT, it's been requested again so I'm making it again and I'll post a picture on Sunday. SO, if you need to make a dip for Superbowl and have no idea what to make, MAKE THIS!!! You and your fellow football party goers will probably all gain a couple pounds from eating it but it will be worth it because it's DELISH and everyone will rave about it!

I didn't really even know what to name it. So Warm Cheesy,Bacon and Ranch Dip is all I came up with. Not really inventive. I took a couple different dip recipes I found, added and omitted and came up with this.


8 oz cream cheese softened
16 oz sour cream
1/2 packet of dry ranch dressing
2 cups of shredded cheese
3/4 cup of cooked crumbled bacon
1 to 2 green onions, chopped
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp hot sauce (This is more for flavor, not heat)
salt to taste
pepper to taste
1 loaf of french bread, cut into bite size pieces (the loaf you buy freshly made at the grocery store)

Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl with electric mixer. Spread in baking dish. No need to grease dish.

Cover with foil and bake at 350 for about 1 hour
Serve warm with pieces of french bread for dipping.

When I originally made mine I also added some shredded cheese and more bacon crumbles to the top before baking. I also doubled the recipe. A doubled recipe feeds around 10 to 12 people.
