Creamy Hot Caramelized Onion and Bacon Dip

| Just the name Hot Caramelized Onion and Bacon Dip sounds outrageously good.
A lot of us are familiar with the cold sour cream onion dip but this hits it out of the park. The only slightly time consuming part is caramelizing the onions, but you definitely don’t want to skip this part. It gives the onions a sweet, smokey taste with none of the bite you would normally associate with onions. This is the dip that even people that think they don’t like onions will love!
Make this for your Super Bowl Party and you will have a hit on your hands!
