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

Overhead shot of labeled ingredients.
  • Almonds: Toast your almonds before for maximum nutty flavor.
  • Cheese: Use freshly shredded cheddar for the best taste 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.

  3. 5 stars
    Love the recipe. Made the hot of out tailgating. Everyone loves this dip and ask for it when we get together ( before COVID). Thanks for a great recipe

  4. This dip is so good. Another version is add pecan pieces instead of almonds and spread out on a plate and top with a pepper jelly you like. Can omit bacon or not. These are both really great.

    1. This is better made and served rather than frozen. I would suggest making it ahead of time if needed but not freezing it.

  5. 5 stars
    I love the way this turned out- I made this for a party, so I doubled the recipe. I substituted the slivered almonds with a 1/2 cup ranch dressing ( incase anyone had nut allergies ) and it was delicious! Easy and delicious recipe, thanks! 🙂

  8. My neighbor has been making this for years. She spreads it on little rye breads on a cookie sheet, and heats it under the broiler for just a few minutes. We all love it. (she does not add almonds)

  9. Miracle Whip is NOT MAYO! It is a Salad Dressing . Hellmans is Mayo — mayonaise 2 DIFFERENT things. Different ingredients as well as flavor.
