Instructions
1. Caramelize onions:
Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions and a pinch of salt. Cook slowly, stirring often, until deeply golden and jammy (30–40 minutes).

Add a splash of balsamic vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Cook another 2–3 minutes until glossy and reduced. Remove from heat.
3. Mix base:
In a bowl, combine whipped cream cheese, sour cream, Parmesan, pepper, and any optional seasonings until smooth.
4. Combine:
Fold the hot onion mixture into the creamy base until fully incorporated.
5. Bake:
Transfer to an oven-safe dish. Bake at 375°F for 20–25 minutes, until warm and slightly bubbly.
6. Serve:
Let rest 5 minutes. Serve warm with chips, crostini, pretzels, or veggies.
