FAQs
Can I make this dip ahead of time?
Absolutely! In fact, making it a few hours in advance allows the flavors to meld together even more. Just wait to add the crushed potato chips until right before serving so they stay crunchy.
What are the best pickles to use?
Dill pickles work best in this recipe, but you can experiment with garlic pickles, bread and butter pickles (for a slightly sweeter twist), or even spicy pickles for a kick!
How can I make this dip even creamier?
If you prefer a smoother texture, use a hand mixer to whip the cream cheese and yogurt together before adding the other ingredients.
What should I serve with this dip?
This dip pairs well with potato chips, pretzels, sliced cucumbers, carrot sticks, celery, or even toasted baguette slices.
Can I make this dip dairy-free?
Yes! Swap out the cream cheese and Greek yogurt for dairy-free alternatives like cashew-based cream cheese and coconut yogurt.
Ingredient Notes
Cream Cheese: The base of this dip, cream cheese adds richness and creaminess. Let it soften at room temperature for easier mixing.
Greek Yogurt: A lighter alternative to sour cream, Greek yogurt adds protein and tangy flavor. Full-fat works best for creaminess.
Pickles: Finely chopping the pickles ensures you get a little crunch in every bite. Use your favorite brand of dill pickles!
Pickle Juice: Don’t skip this—it enhances the tangy pickle flavor and adds a touch of acidity to balance the richness.
Fresh Dill: Fresh dill elevates the flavor, but dried dill can work in a pinch. Use about 1 tablespoon of dried dill if substituting.
Scallions: These add a mild onion flavor without overpowering the dip.
Dill Pickle Potato Chips: Crushed on top, they add an irresistible crunch. You can also mix some into the dip for extra texture!
Chives: A simple but flavorful garnish that adds a pop of color and a mild oniony bite.
