Warm Bacon Cheddar Dip in Sourdogh

This recipe is so so yummy and so simple. Found it hereI made it for my husband and I, and then again for a work party and a lot of people asked for the recipe.

Ingredients:
1 large round loaf sourdough bread (I used the cheapest round loaf of bread I could find)
1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese

1 ½ cups sour cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (medium or sharp)
2-3 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
3/4 lb. bacon – cooked and crumbled (I bought diced bacon from the deli *120 grams for aussies)

Cut out a circle in the top of the bread and gut out the middle to make a bread bowl (save inside pieces of bread for dipping). In a mixing bowl beat cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and Worcestershire sauce. Then mix in bacon. Pour into the bread bowl. Wrap up the whole thing in aluminum foil. Bake at 325 degrees for one hour. Serve with extra bread from bowl and crackers.

*The first time I made it I did the whole cook it for an hour, but the second time I just heated up the dip in the microwave and poured it in the bowl.  The bread lasted longer that way because it was softer.
