Cheese And Bacon Cob Loaf Dip
A creamy, cheesy bacon dip baked inside a crusty cob loaf. Perfectly golden on the outside, gooey and flavorful on the inside—this party favorite is rich, comforting, and incredibly easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 cob loaf
- 250 g cream cheese
- 250 g sour cream
- 200 g bacon chopped
- 1½ cups grated pizza cheese cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan mix, reserve 1 handful
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 tbsp French onion soup mix
- Optional: 100 g brie cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 110°C. Cut 2 cm off the top of the cob and hollow it out. Tear the inside bread into bite-sized pieces. Place the shell, lid, and pieces on a tray and toast for 5–10 minutes.
- In a saucepan over medium-high heat, cook chopped bacon and onion for 3–5 minutes until golden.
- Lower heat. Stir in cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add soup mix, most of the cheese, and optional brie. Stir until melted, about 2 minutes.
- Raise oven to 200°C. Pour hot dip into the cob, top with reserved cheese, and bake for 10 minutes until bubbly.
- Serve hot with toasted bread pieces. Optionally slice the lid for dipping too.
