Ingredients You Will Need
- Cream Cheese – you want this to be room temperature so that it will mix well with the sour cream. If you forget to pull it out of the fridge ahead of time, just transfer to a microwave-safe container and heat for about 10 seconds at a time until softened.
- Sour Cream – either full fat or lite will work.
- Everything Bagel Seasoning – the most popular version of this is found at Trader Joe’s. There are plenty of other variations, though, that can be found at Target, Meijer, Amazon, and other online spice retailers. Or, you can make your own using the recipe above!
