Introduction

This Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip is a rich and creamy treat that tastes just like cookie dough but is safe to eat raw. It’s perfect for parties or a fun snack, pairing wonderfully with crackers, cookies, or fresh fruit.

A white ribbed bowl filled with creamy, light beige cookie dough mixed with small dark brown chocolate chips, which are scattered on top and throughout the dough. The dough’s texture looks thick and smooth with some soft peaks. Surrounding the bowl are several golden round cookies and a few light brown dog-bone shaped biscuits, resting on a white marbled surface. In the background, a blurred cloth with blue and white stripes is visible. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
1/2 cup butter (softened)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup powdered sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips

3/4 cup finely chopped pecans (optional)
Graham crackers, cookies, or fruit (for dipping)

Instructions

Step 1: In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until light and fluffy.

Step 2: Gradually add the powdered sugar and brown sugar, mixing until just combined.
Step 3: Stir in the mini chocolate chips and chopped pecans if using.
Step 4: Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.

Step 5: Serve chilled with graham crackers, cookies, or fresh fruit for dipping.

Tips & Variations

For a nut-free version, simply omit the pecans.
Swap mini chocolate chips for white or peanut butter chips for a different flavor.

If you don’t have a stand mixer, a handheld mixer or sturdy whisk will work.
Add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness if desired.

Storage

Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly. This dip is best enjoyed chilled but can be gently stirred if it firms up too much.
