Ingredients
Scale
Dip Base
- 12 ounces cream cheese, softened (full fat)
- 2 tablespoons sour cream (optional for creamier dip)
Flavorings
- 4 tablespoons pickle juice
- ¼ cup diced dill pickle
- 1 to 2 teaspoons sweet relish
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. If you are using sour cream, mix it in at this point to achieve a richer texture.
- Add Flavor Ingredients: Stir in the pickle juice, diced dill pickle, sweet relish, dried dill, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together thoroughly until fully combined.
- Chill and Serve: Serve the dip immediately or refrigerate until ready to use. If chilled, allow it to sit for a few minutes at room temperature before serving to soften. Enjoy with your favorite crackers, chips, or fresh veggies!
Notes
- For a tangier dip, increase the amount of pickle juice slightly to taste.
- Sour cream is optional but adds extra creaminess; you can substitute with Greek yogurt for a healthier twist.
- Adjust salt carefully if your pickles or pickle juice are already salty.
- This dip stores well in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
- Try adding chopped fresh chives or green onions for added flavor.
