Is it possible to make this sweet dip ahead of time?

Absolutely. You can prepare it the day before and store it in the fridge.

Can I use regular sugar instead of powdered sugar?

You can, but powdered sugar dissolves better for a smoother texture. Regular granulated sugar might leave a slight grainy mouthfeel.

What’s the best way to serve this sweet cream cheese dip at a party?

Serve it chilled in a pretty bowl with an assortment of dippers arranged around it for easy access and attractive presentation.

Can I adjust the sweetness level?

Yes, feel free to tweak the amount of powdered sugar to match your taste—start with less and add more gradually if you like it sweeter.

Can I make this dip vegan?

Yes, by using plant-based cream cheese and dairy-free chocolate chips, you can enjoy a vegan-friendly version of this dip.

Ingredients

Scale

8-ounce block full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened in the microwave for about 15 seconds
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, plus extra for topping

Instructions

Add the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract to a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until creamy.
Add the powdered sugar to the mixing bowl and mix until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure all the ingredients are fully incorporated. Beat the mixture again until it is very fluffy – about 3 minutes.
Add the chocolate chips to the mixing bowl and fold them in with a rubber spatula.
Scoop the dip into a serving bowl and top with extra chocolate chips.
Serve the dip with apple slices, graham crackers, or pie crust cookies.

Notes

Soften cream cheese properly. Make sure your cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing. This helps get creamy, smooth dip without lumps, making it easier to combine with the other ingredients.
Use an electric mixer. This is not a recipe you want to mix by hand. To get the best creamy texture, use a stand mixer or electric hand mixer. This whips in a bit of air, making the dip lighter and smoother.
Chill for the most tasty dip! Although you can enjoy this chocolate chip dip recipe immediately, letting it chill in the fridge for at least an hour improves the flavor and texture. The ingredients will meld together and the dip thickens just right for dipping.
