This is awesome! I will never be able to eat store bought onion dip anymore. I loved it and so did my husband and guests.

Seriously GOOD!!! I finely chopped my onions, otherwise followed recipe directions, and I must say, I am very much a believer in homemade is better. Where has this recipe been all my life as I was pouring the yucky dried stuff into a tub of sour cream and calling it onion dip??This is one to impress guests with.My daughters and I had a sample before I stuck in the fridge to chill,and we could not quit oohing and aahing over this.Creamy and just enough sharpness from the cream cheese and sour cream.It is perfection.Thank you thank you!

I made this to take to my sister's house on Easter, good thing I made a double batch, because it was almost all gone by the time we left. Another sister made sure I gave her the recipe before I left. It was a huge hit!! I served the dip with 3 different kinds of crackers. My mom insisted that I bring this to my Dad's birthday party next week. I wouldn't change a thing!! Thank you so much Kimke for the wonderful dip!!!!
