Instructions
Let’s get to the fun part – making the dip! I’ll guide you through each step, making it super simple.
Step 1: Beat the Cream Cheese and Sour Cream. In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer (or a whisk) to beat together the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Add the Remaining Ingredients. Add the finely chopped dill pickles, pickle juice, chopped fresh dill (or dried dill), garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt to the bowl.
Step 3: Mix Well. Stir all the ingredients together until they are thoroughly combined. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl and ensure that everything is evenly incorporated.
Step 4: Chill and Marinate. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and deepen.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy! Transfer the chilled dip to a serving bowl. Garnish with extra chopped pickles and fresh dill. Serve with your favorite dippers, such as crackers, pretzels, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetables.
