Instructions

To a medium sized mixing bowl, add the sour cream, ranch, and garlic powder. Whisk together until evenly combined.
1 16 oz tub sour cream, 3 tbsp ranch seasoning powder, pinch of garlic powder
Stir in the bacon and cheese, until completely incorporated.
8 strips thick cut bacon, cooked crisp & crumbled, 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Cover the container with plastic wrap to seal, and refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving. Serve with salted chips, crackers, freshly sliced veggies, pretzels, or even slices of toasted baguette bread.

Notes

I highly recommend serving the dip completely chilled- straight from the refrigerator is best.
To keep it cool at a party or an outdoor gathering, transfer the dip to a stainless steel bowl. Put the stainless steel bowl full of dip inside a second bigger bowl full of ice to keep it cool and food safe for the duration of your party.
You can add some extras into the dip if you'd like. This would be so good with some chopped green onions folded in.
