Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9-inch baking dish or coat with nonstick spray. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add onions, garlic and thyme; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and caramelized, about 25 minutes. Stir in beef broth and red wine, if using. Bring to a simmer; remove from heat and stir in cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, 1/2 cup mozzarella and Parmesan. Spread mixture into the prepared baking dish; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Place into oven and bake until bubbly and golden, about 10-12 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to broil.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very tender and caramelized, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, then brush butter on both sides of the bread. Transfer to a baking sheet. Broil until lightly toasted and golden, about 1 minute per side. Set aside for serving.
• Once the onions are caramelized, add the sherry and continue to cook until the liquid has reduced completely, about 1 minute. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire and scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Simmer until the broth has reduced by half, about 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat.
• Stir in the cream cheese, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella, sour cream and Parmesan until smooth and creamy. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Broil until the mozzarella on top is lightly browned and the dip is bubbling at the edges, about 2 minutes. Top with chopped chives and serve with toasted bread.

Add 1/2 cup water, Worcestershire, beef base, onion powder, and thyme. Increase heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until beef base is dissolved.

If onions start to stick to the pan, throw in a splash of water and scrape up the delicious bits. Taste before adding sugar, salt, and pepper. Once seasoned to your liking, remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes.

• Allow mixture to cool for 10 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and puree until smooth. Add cottage cheese, thyme, and marjoram; puree again until smooth. Stir in chopped chives.
• Serve immediately, or refrigerate dip for at least 1 hour or more to give the flavors time to combine.
