Ingredients in Dill Pickle Dip

I love cream cheese. I love pickles. I love dip.  

  • This dip contains only 4 ingredients, but it has great crave-worthy flavor.
  • It’s super easy to make.
  • It can be made a couple of days ahead of time making it party perfect.

Cream Cheese – A key ingredient in a dill pickle dip, cream cheese provides a smooth, creamy texture and a delicious tang. It is easy to spread and is a great base for the dip.

Pickles – Dill pickles add zesty flavor and a bit of crunch. Use your favorite dill pickles or even homemade pickles.

Seasoning – A splash of extra pickle juice adds flavor, salt and helps give it the perfect consistency while fresh dill weed adds flavor.

Tips & Variations

  • Variations – Mix in other seasonings like garlic powder, chopped green onions, a bit of ranch dressing mix, parsley, or capers.
  • Liquid – Remember to add enough pickle juice to keep the dip smooth and avoid a chip-wreck.
  • Flavor & Thickening – Allow the dip to rest in the refrigerator so the flavors can blend and it can thicken up a bit.
  • Serving – We love serving this dill pickle dip recipe with potato chips. It’s also great as a dipper for fresh veggies like carrots, celery, or cucumbers.

  1. I usually start dip/spred recipes with cream cheese by at least getting the cream cheese to room temperature; but usually just toss into the microwave for 10-20 sec (definitely depends on your microwave) so mixing other “stuff” in is a bit easier! I used this as a stuffing for celery which was a huge success! Take care & enjoy!4 stars

  2. This is AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS!! I love dill and dill pickles anyway. MMMM! Making another batch tonight.5 stars
