Instructions

Heat a large cast iron or stainless steel pan over medium heat.
Add the butter, and once melted add the sliced onions, stirring to coat. Add a pinch of salt and allow to cook for 5 minutes, stir and repeat after another 3-5 minutes to keep the onions from sticking.
1 Tablespoon Butter, 1 Sweet Onion
Add the worcestershire sauce and stir again every few minutes until golden in color, about 15-20 minutes total. Set aside.
1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, using a handmixer until smooth and creamy. Add the mayonnaise and sour cream, cheeses, onions and a pinch of salt and pepper. Beat again until smooth and pour back into the onion pan. If your pan isn't oven proof, use a casserole dish.
1 Brick Cream Cheese, 1 Cup Mayonnaise, 1/2 Cup Sour Cream, 2 Cups Swiss Cheese, 2 Cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese, 1 1/2 Cups Parmesan Cheese, 1 Package Mexican Blend Cheese, Salt and Pepper
Bake at 350 for approximately 35 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside once baked and sprinkle with fresh herbs.
Herbs for garnish, we prefer thyme and chopped chives, they make all the difference!
Slice sourdough bread and drizzle with olive oil, then lay evenly on a sheet pan. Turn the oven to broil and toast one or both sides of the bread. Serve with the dip along with crackers and chips if desired.
