4 oz. cream cheese softened
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise

Instructions

Arrange frozen rolls around the outer edge of a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Place a bowl with a 5.5-inch diameter in the center to prevent the rolls from expanding inward.
13 frozen, yeast dinner rolls
Allow the rolls to rise for 3 to 4 hours, depending on room temperature, until they've doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine all dip ingredients using a hand mixer until smooth. Remove the center bowl from the skillet and spoon the dip mixture into the center. It's fine if the dip is heaped, as the rolls will continue to rise during baking. Sprinkle additional cheese, bacon bits, and green onions on top.
4 oz. cream cheese, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 8 oz. shredded Colby Jack cheese, 1/3 cup sliced green onion (greens only), 1/3 cup cooked crumbled bacon*, 1 tbsp. powdered ranch dressing mix, 1 tsp. finely minced garlic
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and stir in the ranch powder and garlic powder until well combined.
4 tbsps. butter, 1/2 tsp. powdered ranch dressing mix, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
Brush most of the butter mixture over the uncooked rolls, reserving about a tablespoon.
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the dip is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and brush the remaining butter mixture over the rolls. For presentation, sprinkle more green onions and bacon bits on top. Serve immediately while warm and gooey.

Notes

*Bacon: If you prefer not to cook bacon from scratch, you can use store-bought real bacon crumbles. Be sure to choose genuine bacon pieces rather than imitation bacon bits.
