Ingredients

Scale

Breadcrumb Topping

  • ½ cup Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Dip

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoon pickle juice
  • 1 oz Ranch seasoning mix (1 packet)
  • 1 cup Dill pickles, chopped

Instructions

  1. Toast Breadcrumbs: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the panko breadcrumbs and stir continuously until they turn golden brown and are evenly toasted. Remove the skillet from heat and set the toasted breadcrumbs aside to cool.
  2. Prepare Dip Base: While the breadcrumbs are cooling, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, pickle juice, and Ranch seasoning mix in a mixing bowl. Use an electric hand mixer to blend the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Pickles: Fold in the chopped dill pickles into the creamy mixture, ensuring they are well distributed throughout the dip.
  4. Assemble and Serve: Sprinkle the toasted breadcrumbs on top of the dip just before serving to maintain their crunch. Serve the dip with chips, pretzels, or fresh vegetables for dipping. If not serving immediately, store the dip covered in the refrigerator without the breadcrumbs, and add them on just before serving to keep them crisp.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to facilitate smooth mixing.
  • To keep the breadcrumbs crunchy, only add them right before serving.
  • You can substitute dill pickles with spicy pickles for an extra kick.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
