Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup dill pickles, finely chopped (reserve some pickle juice)
  • 1 tablespoon pickle juice (from the jar)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional, for extra tang)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Chop the dill pickles into small pieces, reserving a little extra pickle juice for later if desired.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy using a hand mixer or whisk.
  3. Stir in the chopped dill pickles, pickle juice, fresh dill, garlic powder, onion powder, and Dijon mustard (if using). Mix until well combined.
  4. Taste the dip and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or more pickle juice if desired.
  5. Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. The longer it sits, the better the flavor.
  6. Before serving, garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with chips, crackers, or sliced vegetables.

Notes

  • Add green onions, hot sauce, or shredded cheese for a twist on the flavor.
  • For a healthier version, substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream and mayo.
  • Make it spicy by adding diced jalapeños or red pepper flakes.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
