By á-167560

Ingredients

• Makes about 8 cups
• 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
• 8 ounces fontina cheese, shredded
• 2 cups finely chopped Vidalia or other sweet onions
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 5 slices bacon, chopped and cooked until crisp

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, stir together cream cheese and next 3 ingredients until well combined. Spoon mixture into prepared pan.
Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Remove from oven, and sprinkle with bacon.

Note: Two (10-ounce) bags thawed frozen chopped onions can be substituted for Vidalias or sweet onions. Dry the onions well between paper towels; otherwise, the extra moisture in the onions will make the dip watery.
