Assorted chips crackers, carrot sticks, celery stickers, and bell pepper wedges.

Instructions

Set aside 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar, chopped bacon, and green onions.
Add the cream cheese, sour cream, ranch dressing, shredded cheddar, green onions, and ground black pepper to a medium mixing bowl. Stir in the chopped bacon. Beat the mixture with a handheld electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Notes

Bring the cream cheese to room temperature for ease in making this creamy dip.
Slice the green onions thin with a sharp knife. Using green and white parts of the green onion is fine.
