Why you’ll love this
- This is an easy, no bake dessert. Just mix, chill and serve.
- Simple ingredients, that you probably already have at home.
- You can adapt it to your tastes or the occasion. Leave out the chocolate chips and add in some sprinkles for a sugar cookie dip version. Add some peanut butter chips and mix in some toffee bits for a butterfinger flavor! Make it a monster cookie dough dip and add mini m&ms into the batter.
- This recipe can be made up to 3 days ahead. When it’s ready to eat, pull it out of the fridge and let it soften a little, for easy dipping.
What to serve with Dessert Dips
Fruit. Choose cut up apples, strawberries, grapes.
Cookies. Graham crackers (I use both the honey graham crackers and chocolate graham crackers), vanilla wafers or double it up and use mini chocolate chip cookies.
Pretzels. I love a sweet and salty combo! The regular kind of pretzels are great, as well as the smushed ones (called pretzel thins), or the rods.
If you love this flavor, my Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake is the same idea in sliceable, bring-to-a-party form.

Key Recipe Ingredients
Note: This highlights some ingredients. Full list is in the recipe card.
- Cream cheese. Full fat or reduced fat are equally good here. Because we’re beating the cream cheese until fluffy, you won’t notice if you save a few calories!
- Butter. I use salted butter.
- Powdered sugar. Also known as icing sugar or confectioner’s sugar, pack this into the cup!
- Brown sugar. This is important for that “cookie dough” flavor and texture.
- Vanilla. Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor!
- Salt. Not just for savory dishes, salt can help balance sweetness in desserts.
- Chocolate chips. Use the mini chocolate chips, the bigger ones are just too big! Milk chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips or chunks both work deliciously.

JumpGet prepped. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until fluffy. Add the sugars, vanilla and salt.
Beat until well combined, fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour into a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate, for at least 20 minutes. Sprinkle with additional chocolate chips just prior to serving. Dip with graham crackers, fruit, or pretzels.
Kylee’s Notes
Don’t leave the dip out at room temperature for extended periods, especially during summer as it may spoil.
Place a bowl of ice underneath your serving bowl to keep it fresher longer.
What to do with leftovers
Store leftover cookie dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
FAQs
Yes! Just remove from the refrigerator a few minutes before serving so it is more easily scoopable.
Absolutely- it does not contain eggs at all, it’s completely safe. Dig in!
The mini ones work best in this recipe. Bigger ones tend to make it harder to scoop. We can’t have THAT.
