Chocolate Chip Dip Ingredients Here’s a breakdown of each ingredient in this chocolate chip dip recipe: Full-fat, brick-style cream cheese: Full-fat, brick-style (not whipped) cream cheese is recommended for best results. I also recommend a good quality brand; We love Philadelphia Cream Cheese® best. Imitation vanilla extract: Vanilla extract adds a sweet and subtle flavor to the chocolate chip dip and enhances the taste of the chocolate. Imitation vanilla extract is preferred in this recipe as it allows for a larger quantity to be added without the added taste of alcohol. This is important as the dip does not undergo any baking process that could potentially remove the alcohol flavor. Light brown sugar: Brown sugar adds a touch of sweetness to the dip and helps balance the flavors. If you like treats less sweet, simply leave it out. Fine sea salt: The salt helps enhance the flavors in the dip and balances the sweetness. Marshmallow creme/fluff: The marshmallow creme adds a light and fluffy texture to the dip and contributes to the sweet flavor. The best quality brands delivers the best results; we love Kraft® Jet-Puffed. Heavy whipping cream: We whip the heavy whipping cream until it forms soft peaks. This helps create a light and fluffy texture while delivering volume and richness to this dip. Mini chocolate chips: The mini chocolate chips are folded into the mixture to add a sweet and crunchy texture. We prefer semi-sweet to ensure the dip isn’t overly sweet. How To Make Chocolate Chip Dip (Tips) Soften the cream cheese: Room temperature cream cheese works best. Make sure it’s ready to use by softening it before starting the recipe. This will avoid lumps in the dip. You can soften the cream cheese by microwaving it for 20-30 seconds, unwrapped. Gradually add heavy cream: Slowly pour the heavy cream into the mixture while beating, until it is thick with soft peaks. Be cautious of overbeating– this can result in the mixture becoming too stiff or curdling. Gently fold in chocolate chips: Use a spatula to carefully fold in the mini chocolate chips to prevent deflating the dip. Chill the dip: After combining all the ingredients, refrigerate for 15-20 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and will create a firmer texture for dipping. What To Dip In Chocolate Chip Dip Pretzels: This is hands-down my favorite dipper! The salty-sweet combo is *a chef’s kiss*! Vanilla wafers Graham crackers Strawberries Milano cookies Skewered fresh fruit such as sliced bananas, apples, and berries Shortbread cookies Pound cake or angel food cake Cinnamon sugar pita chips or crackers STORAGE Chocolate Chip Dip Storage Storing Chocolate Chip Dip: It is best to store this dip in the fridge, covered with plastic wrap or in an airtight container. It’s best when consumed within 2-4 days. When storing, the dip may separate a bit, but it can be easily recombined by gently folding it with a spatula. Freezing Chocolate Chip Dip: This dip contains dairy, so I don’t recommend freezing it. Freezing and thawing dairy-based dips can cause the texture to become altered, leading to a grainy or curdled consistency.

To the bowl of a stand mixer, add softened cream cheese, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt. Use a whisk attachment to beat until the mixture is completely smooth. (Alternatively, use a hand mixer.) MARSHMALLOW AND HEAVY CREAM: Run a spoon under hot water. Dry it off then use this spoon to pull the marshmallow creme out of the container into the stand mixer. Mix until incorporated. With the mixer running on low speed, gradually add the heavy cream. Once the cream is all added in, increase the speed and beat until nicely thickened with soft peaks (See Note 4). Don't over-beat. CHOCOLATE CHIPS: Add in chocolate chips and fold in gently with a spatula. Cover dip and chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes. Fold again with a spatula and then serve with your favorite dippers. Pretzels and vanilla wafers are our favorites! STORAGE: Store in the fridge, covered, for 2-4 days. Separation during storage can be fixed by folding with a spatula. Freezing Chocolate Chip Dip: Freezing is not recommended due to dairy causing grainy or curdled texture when frozen. Recipe NotesNote 1: Cream cheese: Full-fat, brick-style (not whipped) cream cheese delivers the best results. I also recommend using a good quality brand; We love Philadelphia Cream Cheese® best. Note 2: Imitation vanilla extract: Vanilla extract adds a sweet and subtle flavor to the chocolate chip dip and enhances the taste of the chocolate. Use imitation vanilla in this recipe; it allows for a larger quantity to be added without leaving the taste of alcohol. This is important as the dip does not undergo any baking process that could potentially remove the alcohol flavor. Note 3: Marshmallow creme/fluff: We love Kraft® Jet-Puffed. Getting this out of the jar is a challenge. Run your spoon under hot water, dry it, and scoop out the fluff. It will come out much easier this way! Note 4: Soft peaks: Soft peaks refer to the stage in whipping heavy cream when the beater is lifted and the peak created falls back slightly onto itself, forming a soft and somewhat floppy peak. This stage is achieved when the cream is thick and holds its shape, but the peak still has a soft appearance.
