i made this for a halloween party last night, and it was a huge hit. everyone asked for the recipe. the only thing i did differently was to mix everything in a food processor, just to save a little time. it turned out great!

SERVES 6 – 8
This recipe, from Heart and Soul, the 1992 Memphis Junior League Cookbook, is prone to disappearing quickly when served at parties.
1 14-oz. package frozen chopped onions, thawed
24 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 cups grated parmesan cheese
1⁄2 cup mayonnaise
1. Preheat oven to 425°. Drain chopped onions in a colander, then squeeze out any excess liquid. Put onions into a medium bowl. Add cream cheese, parmesan cheese, and mayonnaise and mix with a wooden spoon until well combined.
2. Transfer onion–cheese mixture to a 1-quart soufflé dish, smoothing top slightly with the back of a spoon. Bake dip until top is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve hot with corn chips or crackers, if you like.Ratings & Reviews (5)
i have made this recipe for many get-togethers and every time it has been a hit! i usually use a fresh vidailia onion though. if you've never tried it, you need to!
Tried this out on the extended family before serving at a party - everyone loved it! Mom (age 79) plans to serve it to her bridge club, Sister (age 57) plans to serve it at a cocktail party, Daughter in law (age 28) plans to serve it at a cookout. Especially easy in a food processor.
Everyone loved this at my party! Simple to make. I made it the day before and baked it before the party. Might be good with crab.
This was fabulous!!! I cut up some flour tortillas into wedges, brushed with a little honey and sprinkled with sesmae seeds and bake them and served along with the Hot Onion Souffle. All of it was a BIG hit! I will certainly be making this again.
