Ingredients
3/4 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons butter
pinch of salt
8 oz (1 block) softened cream cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon pickle juice

1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
1 cup dill pickles, chopped
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
In a skillet, melt 2 tbsp of butter over medium heat.
Once melted, toss in 3/4 cup of panko bread crumbs and a pinch of salt. Stir constantly until they’re golden brown and crunchy. Set aside (if you can stop yourself from snacking on them!).
In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, pickle juice, lemon juice, onion powder, and garlic powder (or flakes). Stir until smooth and creamy.
Taste it—if you’re not already dipping, you're doing it wrong.
Fold in your chopped dill pickles, fresh dill and most of the bread crumbs (reserve a few tablespoons for the garnish). Transfer that creamy, tangy dip into a serving bowl.

Serve immediately with chips, crackers, veggies, or use it as the ultimate buffalo wings sidekick. Watch it disappear in minutes!
Notes
BUTTERY PANKO: The key to the perfect crunch is toasting those panko bread crumbs in butter. Not only does it make them golden and delicious, but the butter also adds a richness that gives your dip that "fried" vibe without the deep-frying. Keep an eye on them in the pan, though! Panko can go from golden brown to burnt in a hot second.
