🍫 Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip 🍪
Ingredients:
For the Dip:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1¼ cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated for safety)
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup mini chocolate chips
For Serving:
Graham crackers, pretzels, apple slices, or cookies
Instructions:
Prepare the Flour:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the flour evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 5–7 minutes, stirring halfway through. This heat-treatment process eliminates any risk of raw flour while maintaining its texture. Let it cool completely before using.
Make the Dip:
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
Add the brown sugar, vanilla extract, and salt to the mixture, continuing to beat until fully combined and slightly fluffy.
Gradually mix in the heat-treated flour, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until the mixture resembles cookie dough.
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dip.
Serve:
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle a few extra mini chocolate chips on top for presentation.
Arrange your choice of dippers—graham crackers, pretzels, apple slices, or cookies—around the bowl. Serve immediately or chill until ready to enjoy.
