Ingredients

8 oz. Philadelphia cream cheese softened
1/4 cup butter softened
3/4 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips mini work too
wafer cookies for serving

Instructions

Pull butter and cream cheese from the fridge, open packaging, and let sit to soften for 15 minutes prior to making dessert dip. This helps it mix a lot easier.
Beat softened cream cheese and butter in a bowl until smooth and creamy.
Add powdered sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract and beat until mixed well.
Fold in large chocolate chips with a spatula.
Spoon chocolate chip dip into a serving bowl and eat immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
If dip is refrigerated, set out about 30 minutes before serving so the cream cheese in the dip can soften.
Serve dip with wafer cookies, graham crackers, animal crackers/cookies, strawberries (fresh fruit) or shortbread cookies.

Notes

Soften Dip

Cream cheese comes out as a solid block from the fridge. For best results, pull cream cheese out of the fridge and unwrap it so it begins to soften, about 20 minutes prior to assembling dip. You can make the dip with the hardened cream cheese, but it may be a bit of a struggle initially to blend.

Storage

Cheesecake dips must be stored in the fridge, however the cream cheese will reharden again (as cream cheese does). Simply put it back on the counter and let soften about 15 minutes to eat again or use a knife to spread it on crackers or cookies while in a more solid form.

How long can a dessert dip be left out at a party?

About 2 hours....if it even lasts that long.

What to serve dip with?

We like to eat it with graham crackers, however this dip easily goes with sugar cookies, apple slices, strawberries, vanilla wafers and pretzels.

How to turn this dip into a mint chocolate chip dip:

Add 1/2 tsp peppermint extract and replace the chocolate chips with Andes mints. Color dip with a bit of green food coloring if you like for aesthetics.
