Ingredients For Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Dip

Chocolate Chips mixed with cream cheese, sugar and vanilla create a dip that tastes like a slice of bakery cheesecake! Serve with fresh fruit, pretzels, and cookies for a sweet treat everyone will love.
  • Cream Cheese: Use low-fat or full-fat, whatever you prefer.
  • Butter: This helps cut through some of the tanginess of cream cheese.
  • Powdered Sugar: To sweeten the dip without a grainy texture.
  • Brown Sugar: For just that little hint of nuttiness that makes this taste like brown butter cookie dough. Coconut sugar or maple syrup will work too.
  • The basics: Vanilla extract and salt help elevate the other flavors.
  • Chocolate Chips: For a little crunch and fun texture. I like to use mini-chocolate chips, but regular or even a chopped-up chocolate bar will work.

Dipper Options

You can enjoy this dip with so many pairings. Here are some popular ones I’ve served.

  • Fresh strawberries
  • Mini pretzels
  • Graham crackers
  • Waffle cones broken into pieces

Recipe Variations

  • Add peanut butter – Swirl in a couple of tablespoons for a chocolate-peanut butter twist.
  • Make it s’mores-style – Mix in mini marshmallows and serve with graham crackers.
  • Try a cookies & cream version – Fold in crushed Oreos instead of chocolate chips.
  • Make it dairy-free – Use dairy-free cream cheese and butter substitutes.

Step By Step Instructions

Chocolate Chips mixed with cream cheese, sugar and vanilla create a dip that tastes like a slice of bakery cheesecake! Serve with fresh fruit, pretzels, and cookies for a sweet treat everyone will love.
  1. Mix It Together: Beat together the cream cheese and butter, then add the sugars, vanilla, and salt.

How Long Does Cheesecake Dip Stay Fresh?

I don’t recommend freezing it since the texture may change. But you can store it in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container. You can also make it up to a day in advance. Just give it a quick stir before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take for the cream cheese and butter to come to room temperature?

Cream cheese and butter usually take 30 minutes to 1 hour to come to room temperature.

Can I use regular chocolate chips instead of mini chocolate chips?

Yes, you can use regular chocolate chips, but mini chocolate chips work better as they are distributed more evenly in the dip.

How do I make this cheesecake dip light and fluffy?

Beat the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy before adding the other ingredients.

How do I stir in the chocolate chips?

Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips after the other ingredients are mixed to avoid over-mixing.

    sooo good!
    delicious!
    try using normal chocolate chips, blending them, and adding the powder in. It is easier to eat because then you do not need to pick up any chocolate chips and they are evenly shared. Just be shure to use half a cup of normal ones if you want it to taste the same.

      1. Thank you so much for sharing your delicious recipes, I will try to make some one day.
        You are so knowledgeable.
        God bless you with your wonderful work.
        🙏❤️ Kassie

    This came together in a snap and tastes delicious! I didn’t have enough chocolate chips so I used 1/3 C chocolate chips, 1/3 C dessicated coconut, and 1/3 C chopped pecans.
