Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese softened
1/4 cup sour cream
2-3 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and well combined.
Add the everything bagel seasoning (start out with 2 tablespoons and add more as necessary), chives, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Mix all the ingredients together until the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the dip.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, sprinkle a little extra everything bagel seasoning and chopped chives on top for garnish, if desired.
Serve the everything bagel dip with your favorite crackers, pretzels, or fresh vegetable sticks.

Notes

For a smoother consistency, ensure the cream cheese is fully softened at room temperature before mixing. This makes blending easier and creates a creamier texture for the dip.

This dip can be made ahead of time. Consider preparing it a day before serving to allow the flavors to meld even more for a richer taste.

If you can't find pre-made everything bagel seasoning, you can easily create your own blend by using equal parts of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, and a pinch of salt.

If you're hosting a gathering, consider doubling the recipe. This dip tends to disappear quickly, and having extra ensures everyone gets a taste.

Be careful when adding the Everything seasoning as some brands are very salty. You don't want to over salt your dip!
