Best ever! Beyond impressed, tastes just like my favorite store bought brand. The ONLY thing I do differently is I like to give the onions a quick go in the blender, I have texture issues for some reason and can't exactly handle bites of solid onion in a smooth creamy dip. :

I did a few things differently - used bacon grease instead of olive oil for a fuller, smoky flavor. I used my own cultured cream (I used store buttermilk as the starter, let it go for 24 hours and left out the mayonnaise, using more cultured cream instead. Since the kids don't like onions I pureed them in the blender with half of the cultured cream after they had been caramelized. I'm shocked at how closely this resembles the best store french onion dip. It's delicious and we love it!

Compared to a mix, the only extra work is cooking the onions. But the taste is so worth it. I use a bag of frozen chopped onions which its enough for a double batch.
