- Sprinkle the brown sugar and balsamic vinegar over the onions and continue cooking for another 5 minutes, until the onions are deeply caramelized.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the caramelized onions, grated cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and spread it out evenly.
