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.

Hate to be repetitive, but this was SOOOOOOO good. First of MANY dips that were finished at the New Year's Eve party I went to. I used regular sour cream and low fat mayo. Next time (oh yes, there will be many "next times" I will try low fat sour cream and see if it tastes as good.

Very good. Everyone loved it at the Christmas party. Even tough critics. I received a request to make it for the next football game. Very creamy.

Best onion dip I have ever had and since it is extremely easy to make I don't think I will ever buy it from the store again!! You really need to let it refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to let the flavors meddle. The dip gets better and better over a few days.

I made this for a holiday party and it was absolutely devoured! You MUST make it a couple of days in advance; I tasted it right after I made it, and it was below average. After sitting for two days, it was amazing--much better than my favorite store-bought brand of onion dip!
