Equipment

- measuring cups / spoons
- Rubber Spatula

Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 2 tbsp pickle juice
- 3/4 cup dill gherkin pickles + 1/4 cup for topping
- 1 ½ tbsp ranch seasoning mix
- 1/2 tsp dried dill
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 12 Keebler Club Crackers crumbled
Instructions
- In a food processor, add cottage cheese, softened cream cheese, and pickle juice. Pulse it until cottage cheese and cream cheese are smoothed.
- Use a vegetable chopper to finely dice dill pickles. Add them to the food processor with ranch seasoning mix, dried dill, and salt.
- Pulse until pickles are minced into the dip. Heat a small skillet to medium heat and toast the club crackers until toasted and golden brown – gently stirring in the dry skillet to avoid burning. This is the “fried” element.

- Enjoy this delicious dip cold with kettle chips!
Notes
Store the dip for 4-5 days in an airtight container. Keep the cracker crumbs separate so they do not become soggy.
