Ingredients

1 ½ cups Mt. Olive Bread & Butter Chips, chopped (or your favorite dill pickles!)
1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix (1 packet)
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for added richness)
FOR THE CRISPY TOPPING:
¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon butter
Pinch of garlic powder (optional)
