Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1 cup cooked corned beef, chopped fine
  • 3/4 cup sauerkraut, well-drained and chopped
  • 1/3 cup Thousand Island dressing
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
  • 6 slices rye bread
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Pinch of kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice rye bread into triangles or strips (about 1-inch wide). Toss with olive oil or melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy. Cool on the sheet.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and sour cream until smooth using a hand mixer or sturdy whisk.
  4. Add chopped corned beef, drained and chopped sauerkraut, shredded Swiss cheese, Thousand Island dressing, black pepper, and garlic powder. Fold gently with a spatula until fully combined.
  5. Transfer the dip mixture to a 9-inch oven-safe dish. Spread evenly with a spatula. Top with extra Swiss cheese if desired.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until hot and bubbly with lightly browned edges. For extra color, broil for 2 minutes at the end, watching closely.
  7. Let the dip rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  8. Serve warm with rye chips.

Notes

Drain sauerkraut thoroughly to avoid watery dip. Shred your own Swiss cheese for best melting. Rye chips can be made ahead and stored airtight. For vegetarian, substitute mushrooms or caramelized onions for corned beef. For gluten-free, use GF rye-style bread. Dip can be prepped ahead and baked before serving.
