Welcome viewers and introduce the recipe for caramelized onion dip.

Mention the collaboration and playlist for dip recipes in December.

State that the dip is great for New Year's or any time of year.

Show the ingredients: thinly sliced onions, cream cheese, dried thyme, black pepper, salt, sugar, garlic, and sour cream.

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium to medium-low heat.

Add the sliced onions to the skillet and season with salt, black pepper, and thyme, then stir.

Let the onions cook for a couple of minutes, then add sugar to help with caramelization.

Cook the onions for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

When the pan starts to get dry, add low sodium chicken stock or water to deglaze and help cook the onions faster.

After 25 minutes, the onions should be golden brown; remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.

Chop the caramelized onions into small pieces after cooling.

Cook garlic in a separate pan if forgotten during onion cooking, then add to the mixture.

Soften cream cheese in the microwave for about 30 seconds to make it easier to stir.

In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce until smooth.

Chill the dip in the refrigerator overnight or serve at room temperature or slightly warm.

Serve with kettle-cooked potato chips, pita chips, or fresh vegetables.
