- Start by collecting all the ingredients listed above. Once you have everything, you’ll find the prep to be seamless. 
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and mayonnaise. Using a hand mixer or a sturdy spatula, blend these two until super smooth. You want a silky consistency that invites you in. 
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. This will provide that sharp, rich flavor we all love. Follow this with Dijon mustard and a dash of cayenne pepper for a subtle kick. 
- Now, fold in the crumbled bacon, sliced almonds, chopped parsley, and half of the green onions. This step ensures you get all those delightful textures and flavors mixed in. 
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover it, and allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour. This waiting period lets the flavors marry beautifully.
