1
Prepare the Onions
Peel and slice the yellow onions into thin strips.
2
Cook the Onions
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sprinkle with salt. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 10-15 minutes until they start to soften.
3
Caramelize the Onions
Continue to cook the onions for an additional 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are deeply golden brown and caramelized. If the onions start to brown too quickly, reduce the heat to low.
4
Cool the Onions
Once caramelized, remove the skillet from heat and let the onions cool slightly before adding to the dip mixture.

5
Mix the Base
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and well combined.
6
Add Seasonings
Stir in the garlic powder and black pepper into the cream cheese mixture.
7
Incorporate Caramelized Onions
Fold in the cooled caramelized onions into the dip base until evenly distributed.
8
Garnish (Optional)
If desired, chop fresh chives and sprinkle on top of the dip before serving.
9
Chill
Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
