Ingredients
Scale
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup finely chopped dill pickles
1/4 cup pickle juice
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Optional: 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
Instructions
Place the softened cream cheese and sour cream in a medium bowl. Mix them together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Stir in the finely chopped dill pickles and the pickle juice until they combine well.
Add the fresh dill, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly to distribute the flavors.
If you are using them, fold in the chopped fresh chives.
Cover the bowl and chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. This step lets the tangy flavors meld together.
Serve your best pickle dip cold with potato chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables.
Notes
Use high-quality dill pickles for the best flavor in your dip.
Chilling the dip overnight significantly improves the tangy and herbaceous notes.
For an extra layer of crunch, consider topping the finished dip with crispy fried onions before serving.
