Easy Sour Cream Chip Dip

If you are looking for a tasty appetizer to whip up in a matter of minutes, my homemade sour cream chip dip is the one to make! There is no cooking required, all you have to do is mix the ingredients in a bowl and chill the dip for 2 hours!

Typically, dill is a common ingredient in most sour cream dip recipes. However, this version is made without dill, and other flavorful herbs and spices are added instead!

🔪 How To Make Sour Cream Chip Dip

This recipe is by far one of the easiest appetizers to prepare, just make sure to allow enough time for it to chill so that all of the flavors blend beautifully. You will need a mixing bowl, a silicone spatula set, and some measuring spoons to begin.

1 bowl of dip yields 12 servings. You can easily double the ingredients if you are serving a larger crowd!

  1. Combine ingredients. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl (16 ounces of sour cream, 2 tablespoons of dried minced onion, 1 tablespoon of freeze-dried chives, 2 teaspoons of parsley, and ½ teaspoon of garlic powder).
  2. Mix. Mix until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  3. Chill and serve. Cover the bowl with cling wrap and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours. Serve with chips or veggie sticks.

Sour cream chip dip is great to serve with crispy potato chips or fresh carrots and celery sticks. This dish also goes well with any family-favorite appetizer, like my smoked chicken wings or pinwheel sandwiches! Enjoy!

💭 Angela's Tips & Recipe Notes

  • 16 ounces of sour cream is equal to 2 cups.
  • You may also make this recipe by using 1 cup of sour cream and 1 cup of mayonnaise.
  • You are able to leave the dip out at room temperature for a maximum of 2 hours. Be sure to keep it refrigerated until you are ready to serve for the best flavor and texture.

🥡 Storing

Store your leftover sour cream dip in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5-7 days.

❓ Recipe FAQs

Can I Freeze Sour Cream Dip?

Technically yes. You can if you want, however when this dip is thawed, the texture will become grainy. I recommend only storing sour cream dip in the fridge so that it keeps a creamy consistency.

What Can I Serve With Sour Cream Dip?

This homemade sour cream dip is great to serve with potato chips, tortilla chips, or any of your favorite veggie slices like celery, carrots, or bell peppers.

Can I Make This Sour Cream Dip Spicy?

Absolutely! You could add a few drops of your favorite hot sauce or sriracha, a pinch of cayenne pepper, or even some spicy mustard to add a kick to this dip!
