Easy 3-Ingredient Cheddar Ranch Crack Dip (Print version)

A creamy no-cook cheddar ranch dip made with sour cream, ranch seasoning, and shredded cheddar.

# Ingredients:

For the dip

01 - 16 oz (455 g) sour cream
02 - 1 oz (28 g) dry ranch seasoning mix
03 - 1 1/2 cups (170 g) finely shredded sharp cheddar cheese

# Instructions:

01 - Add the sour cream to a medium mixing bowl and stir until creamy and even.
02 - Sprinkle in the dry ranch seasoning. Stir well until the seasoning is fully blended with no dry pockets.
03 - Add the shredded cheddar and fold until the cheese is evenly distributed through the dip.
04 - Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, so the ranch flavor hydrates and deepens.
05 - Stir once more and serve chilled with chips, crackers, pretzels, celery, carrots, or cucumber slices.

# Good to know:

01 - Chilling time is important for the best flavor.
02 - Use sharp cheddar for a stronger cheese flavor.
03 - Serve in small batches and keep the rest refrigerated.
