Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F/180°C, setting the stage for the cheesy magic that’s about to unfold.
- Crispy Bacon Bliss: In a pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until it reaches crispy perfection. Drain on paper towels, allowing it to cool before crumbling into savory bits of bliss.
- Meat Medley: Using the same skillet, combine the lean hamburger meat and finely diced onion. Cook until the meat is thoroughly done, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Remove from heat and drain excess fat if needed.
- Creamy Fusion: In a mixing bowl, meld the cooked meat mixture with softened cream cheese, sour cream, half of the shredded cheeses, Worcestershire sauce, crumbled bacon, and a dash of salt and pepper. Stir the ingredients until a creamy, flavorful fusion emerges.
- Bake to Perfection: Transfer the delightful mixture to a baking pan or skillet, generously topping it with the remaining cheese. Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the dip reaches a state of hot, gooey perfection.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped parsley and diced dill pickles over the bubbling goodness. This Cheeseburger Dip is best enjoyed piping hot, paired with crispy potato chips.
