This is the best blue cheese dressing. I can't stop eating it. I might be guilty of searching my fridge for things to dip in it! Blue cheese dressing is easy to prepare from scratch and it tastes so much better than anything you can buy at the grocery store. And since it comes together with just 5 minutes of preparation time, there is no reason not to make your own blue cheese dressing!

Ingredients
about 1 cup of crumbled Blue Cheese
1/2cupSour Cream
1/4cupMayonnaise
about 1/2 cup Buttermilk
2tablespoonsLemon Juice
1/2teaspoonGarlic Powder
1cloveof Garlic
1/4teaspoonfreshly ground Black Pepper
a dash of Worcestershire Sauce
Instructions
Whisk the sour cream, mayonnaise, and 1/4 cup buttermilk together. Either very finely chop the clove of garlic or use a microplane to break it up. Add the garlic, garlic powder, lemon, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce, and whisk to combine.
Now start adding the crumbled blue cheese. I added about a cup, but you might want to add less if you don't want your dressing to be super chunky. If the dressing becomes too thick, just add some buttermilk. The dressing will thicken as it sits, so add more buttermilk as necessary.
Recipe Notes
The dressing tastes best if you let it sit in the fridge for a few hours - or overnight. As the dressing sits something magical happens and the flavors really start working together. The blue cheese dressing does get thicker as it sits, so you may want to stir in some extra buttermilk before serving. This recipe makes 16 ounces of blue cheese dressing and it can be stored in the fridge for a few days.
