A Reader’s Review
“Simple to make! Plus it was a huge hit! Can’t ask for anything more than that!” -BonBon
Why This Million Dollar Dip Beats the Rest!
- Better Crunch: My Million Dollar Dip uses freshly shredded cheddar and slivered almonds for the perfect mix of creamy and crunchy.
- Flavor That Gets Better: This dip’s flavor gets better as it chills, so you can make it ahead and it’ll taste even better the next day!
- Simplicity Without Sacrifice: My Neiman Marcus Dip comes together in minutes and has the perfect balance of rich, salty, and savory flavors.
Million Dollar Dip Ingredients

- Almonds: Toast your almonds before adding them for maximum nutty flavor.
- Cheese: Use freshly shredded cheddar. Packaged cheese lacks flavor and texture. You can also use aged Gouda or Gruyere.
- Flavor Boosts: Add extra flavor with 1 Tablespoon ranch seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, or a few dashes of hot sauce!
- Mayonnaise: You can substitute mayo for sour cream, cream cheese or Greek yogurt. I have found that mayonnaise works best to achieve a perfectly creamy texture.

If you love dips that can be ready in a hot minute without actually ever breaking a sweat, try my Poolside Dip, BLT Dip, and Jalapeno Popper Dip.

Can leftovers be frozen?
No, I don’t suggest freezing this dip. The mayonnaise in it will separate and become watery if frozen and thawed.
I made the marry me chicken pasta it was great. Loved it. Thank you. Looking for easy meatless dishes.
Made this and it was ok, nothing spectacular, I thought it was really salty! I believe the culprit was the bacon bits. If I make this again I will use real bacon instead.
We make this every year in triple batches for our holiday gathering and always gone. Passed along to lots of peeps. Love it
It’s so simple but so good! Thanks for sharing!
I think you forgot the cream cheese!
Hi Karen, this recipe doesn’t call for cream cheese. If you are looking for a similar flavor but with cream cheese you should try my baked bacon dip!
