Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¼ Cup mayonnaise
  • ½ Cup sour cream
  • 2 oz (½ cup) cheddar cheese shredded
  • 2 oz (½ cup) mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1 oz (¼ cup) parmesan cheese shredded
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoon dried chives
  • ½ tsp onion powder

Instructions

  • In a medium-size bowl, mix the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and the seasonings until well mixed.
  • Add the shredded cheese and stir to combine.
  • Scoop the dip into an oven-safe 2 cup baker or two 1 cup bakers.
  • Place the dip into the basket of the air fryer.
  • Set the air fryer to 320°F. Cook the dip for 8-10 minutes until hot, slightly bubbly around the edges and lightly golden.
  • Carefully remove the dishes from the air fryer (use potholders, the dishes are hot) and serve.

Notes

Be careful not to overcook the dip.  You want to heat it just long enough so that it is hot, slightly bubbly and lightly golden.  If heated too long the oils in the mayonnaise and cheese will separate causing an oily, gritty dip. 
Use only freshly shredded cheese.  Packaged cheese will contain additives that will interfere with the texture of the dip.
This recipe makes approximately 2 cups of dip.
