Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, cayenne, salt and Worcestershire, and continue to beat until smooth, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of the Parmesan and the Onion Jam, and mix on low speed until just combined. At this point, cook immediately or store the dip in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Scoop the dip into a baking dish and top with the remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan and the crumbled bacon. Bake until the cheese melts and the dip begins to bubble, 8 to 10 minutes. Garnish with chives and serve the dip with crackers, warm bread and vegetables.
- In a large frying pan set over medium-low heat, add the oil and then the onions. Add the salt and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the vinegar, sugar and 2 tablespoons water. Continue to cook over low heat, stirring often, until the liquid is absorbed and the onions are rich golden brown, about 20 minutes. Spread the onion jam on a cookie sheet and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate any leftovers.

FINGER LICKIN' ONION DIP, FROM ALLRECIPES
Steps:
- Melt the butter with the olive oil in a shallow skillet over medium heat; cook the onion in the butter and oil until translucent. Season with salt, pepper, basil, paprika, tarragon, and brown sugar. Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir until the onions have softened and caramelized, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. Mix the goat cheese and sour cream together in a bowl; stir the onions into the mixture.
Tips:
- Use a variety of onions. Yellow onions, red onions, and shallots all add different flavors to the dip.
- Caramelize the onions. This step takes a little time, but it's worth it. Caramelized onions are sweeter and more flavorful than raw onions.
- Use a good quality mayonnaise. This is the base of the dip, so make sure it's a brand you like.
- Add some sour cream. This will help to balance out the richness of the mayonnaise.
- Season the dip to taste. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
- Serve the dip immediately. This dip is best when it's fresh.
Conclusion:
This onion dip is the perfect party appetizer. It's easy to make, delicious, and always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a snack to serve at your next gathering, give this recipe a try.
