The rich flavor of this dip is completely addicting and worth the time it takes to slowly cook the onions. Serve with thick-cut or ridged potato chips, or sturdy crackers.

Ingredients
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced

SERVE at room temperature, or cover and chill. Keeps well up to 2 days.
