#3249 - Cooked Onion Dip

(by Shirley McNevich)

2 large yellow onions
2 TBSP butter
1 1/2 cups Breakstone's sour cream
8oz. Philadelphia cream cheese (softened)
1 TBSP fresh chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to your taste (optional)

Peel the onions, slice them and separate them into rings. In a skillet over medium heat add the butter--melt. Once butter is melted, add the onions--cook/stir over medium heat until onions are tender and caramelized (it takes a long time--at least 20 minutes). Remove skillet from heat and allow onions to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, drain off any grease from the onions and chop all of the onions into bite sized pieces. In a bowl add sour cream and cream cheese--beat with a spoon until mixed and smooth. Add the chopped parsley, onion powder and Worcestershire sauce--stir well. Add the chopped onions--stir to mix. Taste--add salt and pepper if necessary--stir to mix. Serve with good quality crackers.
