    Blue Cheese Dip: Made of simple ingredients like sour cream, mayo, green onions, spices, lemon juice, and of course, blue cheese crumbles. This no bake recipe is delicious to serve with fresh vegetables, your favorite crackers, or even as a thick blue cheese dressing on top of a side salad.

    I’m just going to say it, this will be your all-time favorite blue cheese dip recipe. Yes, this buffalo blue cheese dip is good too but this one takes the cake.

    It’s delicious served as an appetizer with your favorite crackers, vegetables, or whatever you love serving with savory dips like this one; such as these air-fried chicken wings. You may also want to serve this delicious crack corn dip too!

    Ingredients Needed

    I’ve highlighted a couple of ingredients with some relevant notes. Aside from this, the ingredients needed are pretty basic.

    Labeled ingredients on white counter for blue cheese dip.
    • Blue Cheese – You can use blue cheese crumbles but I love to use the block cheese and crumble it myself but either will do! If you have extra, consider these blue cheese burgers to up your burger game too!
    • Mayo – The brand of mayo that you use is up to you but I absolutely love either Kraft mayo or Hellman’s mayo for this dip.
    • Buttermilk – If you only have regular milk on hand, it’s ok to use that instead but we prefer buttermilk for that extra tang.

    How to Make Blue Cheese Dip

    It’s really simple to make this dip, and it only involves placing all of the ingredients in a bowl, mixing until combined, and chilling! See below!

    *Be sure to see the recipe card below for the full ingredients list & instructions!*

    STEP 1. Place all ingredients in bowl. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, and stir until evenly combined (Images 1 & 2).

    STEP 2. Chill.  Cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours and then serve!

    Tip: This dip can be enjoyed after just a couple of hours but it’s even better when it sits in the refrigerator at least overnight, or for a day to really allow the flavors to combine.
