Instructions

Lay out the cream cheese so it can soften to room temperature.

Cook the bacon in the manner that you normally would, allow to cool, and chop into small pieces.

Wash and dry the green onions and thinly slice on an angle.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

In a medium sized bowl, add in the cream cheese, mayo, sour cream, mozzarella cheese, gruyere cheese, bacon (reserve some for topping the dip), and combine thoroughly with a spoon.

Then pour into a baking dish, cover with foil, and bake for 35 minutes.

Remove from oven, top with additional bacon and the green onions and serve warm!

Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Crisp Your Bacon Separately 🥓
Cook bacon until extra crispy before mixing into the dip, then reserve some for garnish—this prevents it from becoming soggy and ensures maximum flavor and texture in every bite.
Temper Your Cream Cheese 🧈
Let cream cheese sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free consistency that blends seamlessly with other ingredients.
Layer Your Cheeses Strategically 🧀
Mix Gruyere into the base for deep, nutty flavor while reserving mozzarella mostly for the top layer—this creates a beautifully browned, bubbly crust while maintaining creamy interior texture.
Don't Skip the Sour Cream Balance ⚖️
Use equal parts sour cream and mayo to prevent the dip from becoming too heavy or acidic; adjust the ratio based on your baking dish size to achieve the ideal consistency.
Bake Low and Slow for Perfection 🕐
Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes until the edges are bubbly but the center still jiggles slightly—this prevents the dip from drying out and ensures it stays creamy when served.
