These Cracked Out Butter Dips are crazy addictive!!! Biscuits loaded with cheddar, bacon, and ranch. I mean, what’s not to love?!?!?!? The best part about these biscuits is that they are super easy to make. No kneading, no cookie cutters. Just mix everything together, press into a baking pan, cut into squares directly in the pan and bake.
How to Make Cracked Out Butter Dips
These biscuits are super easy to make. Start with melting some butter in a baking dish. Mix together flour, baking powder, salt, ranch dressing mix, cheddar cheese, bacon, and buttermilk. Press the dough into the baking dish. Cut the dough into squares and bake.
- Can use precooked bacon or freshly cooked bacon. If using fresh bacon, you will need about ⅓ of a pound of bacon.

- This recipe can easily be doubled for a crowd. Just double the ingredients and bake in a 9×13-inch pan.
- I don’t have buttermilk. What can I use instead? You can make homemade buttermilk with 1 cup milk and 1 Tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice. Mix the two together and let sit for 5 minutes before using it.
- Can I freeze Butter Dip Biscuits? Sure! You can freeze any leftover biscuits for a quick side later.

Cracked Out Butter Dips
Equipment:
Ingredients:
- Ā¼ cup unsalted butter
- 1Ā¼ cup flour
- 1 Tbsp dry Ranch Dressing mix
- 2 tsp baking powder
- Ā½ tsp salt
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ā cup cooked chopped bacon
- ā to 1 cup buttermilk or milk
Instructions:
- Heat the oven to 450Ā°F. Cut the butter into pieces and place them in an 8-inch square microwave-safe baking dish. Put the dish in the microwave and melt the butter.
- While the butter is melting, whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and ranch dressing mix together in a large mixing bowl. Add cheese and bacon. Stir in 2/3 cup buttermilk; continue to add more buttermilk until a loose dough forms. (I used about 2-3 Tbsp more than the 2/3 cup)
- Remove baking dish from the microwave and press biscuit dough in the pan over the melted butter (It helps to put a little flour on top of the dough or your fingers). Using a knife, cut the biscuits into 12 or 16 squares.
- Bake for 17-20 minutes until golden.

Is the flour self rising or plain?
all-purpose flour
Have you ever doubled this recipe and frozen half?
You can freeze the baked biscuits and they will be fine.
Chandana, a quick internet search for "vegan bacon" or "vegetarian bacon" will give you lots of products. I, however, am allergic to soy, which is in many meat analogs, so I just leave it out. If there's enough bacon that I feel that the volume needs to be replaced, I use something else…usually beans, since I love them. In this particular recipe, I'm going to try finely chopped onions, which will give a completely different flavor profile, but one that I imagine will be delicious! Hope this helps you get started. (Sadly, I'm also allergic to bacon, and anything else from a piggy.)
Hi there .. these look yummy. What would be a good substitute for bacon for a vegetarian? Thank you!
What do you normally substitute for bacon? Iām not really sure what vegetarian options there are for bacon
Would almond flour work in this recipe to cut down on carbs?
I have never made this with almond flour, so I can not say.
Sorry was not clear. Something that could add similar richness/flavor I guess?
