Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 ½ cups sour cream
  • ¼ cup French dressing
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 8 ounces cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 ounce packet ranch seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, French dressing, and Worcestershire sauce and mix until smooth.
  • Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
  • Cover bowl and chill for at least 6 hours to let flavors meld together.
  • Serve with crackers, veggies, or pretzels.

Notes

  • Soften the cream cheese first: Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free spread.
  • Mix the base until smooth: Fully blend the cream cheese, sour cream, French dressing, and Worcestershire sauce before adding the dry seasonings and cheese for the best texture.
  • Shred your own cheese if you can: Freshly shredded cheddar melts into the spread more smoothly, but pre-shredded works just fine if that’s what you have.
  • Chill for best flavor: This spread tastes best after at least 6 hours in the refrigerator. Overnight chilling allows the flavors to fully develop.
  • Stir before serving: After chilling, give the spread a good stir to refresh the texture and redistribute the flavors.
  • Let it soften slightly before serving: Set the spread out for 10–15 minutes so it’s easier to scoop and spread.
  • Adjust thickness if needed: If the spread feels too thick, stir in a tablespoon of sour cream or milk until it reaches your preferred consistency.
  • Taste and adjust: After chilling, taste and adjust seasoning if needed—especially the salt, garlic, and onion powder.
