Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• In an oven-safe skillet (8-10 inches), cook bacon over medium-high heat.
• Remove bacon from the skillet and place on a plate lined with a paper towel to let cool. Do not clean out the skillet.
• To the skillet with bacon grease, add the onions and sugar. Cook 20 minutes over medium heat, stirring often. (When onions start to stick to the pan, scrape them up.)

• Add the sour cream, cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, 1 cup shredded cheese, salt, and pepper.

• Top with the remaining cup of cheese and reserved bacon.
• Bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is hot and bubbly. Garnish with parsley before serving.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND WHITE CHEDDAR DIP WITH APPLES AND DARK BREAD

Steps:

• Heat a heavy bottomed medium pot or deep skillet over medium heat. Melt butter in pot and add onions, raising heat slightly. Add bay, thyme, salt and pepper to onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and caramel in color, 20 minutes.
• While onions cook, slice apples and douse with a little lemon juice to slow browning. Arrange the apples and bread on a board or platter.
• When onions are soft and sweet, add flour and cook a minute. Whisk in wine, cook a minute then whisk in half-and-half. When the liquid comes up to a bubble, season with nutmeg and cloves and adjust salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in Cheddar and melt then remove from heat and serve in fondue pot or transfer to a small, warmed sauce pot which you can return to the stove top to reheat sauce as necessary. Dip apples and bread in warm cheesy sauce and enjoy.
