Make this dessert dip for your next potluck or holiday get together and you will be the star. Seriously. This dip is a huge hit with my family. Best part is that it is so quick and easy to make and doesn’t need any chill time. It is perfect for any holiday including 4th of July, Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, birthdays, etc. In fact, I can’t think of a single occasion to not serve this cream cheese chocolate chip dip. Much like this Oreo Fluff, it is a party favorite!

Cream cheese desserts are my favorite! If you love them too, I highly recommend trying this no-bake peanut butter pie or this crustless lemon poppyseed cheesecake.

Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Dip Ingredients

To make this cream cheese dessert dip, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• cream cheese
• butter, softened
• sour cream or plain yogurt
• powdered sugar (confectioner’s sugar)
• brown sugar
• vanilla extract
• miniature semisweet chocolate chips
• fresh fruit such as strawberries or grapes, graham crackers, vanilla wafer, pretzels, or cookies for dipping

You can substitute a light cream cheese if preferred. Regular size chocolate chips work as well, although I do prefer the mini version for easier dipping. You can also use milk chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips.

How to Make Chocolate Chip Dip

This dip is super quick to make so let’s get started! Grab your large mixing bowl and beat softened cream cheese, butter and sour cream until light and fluffy.

Add in powdered sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Mix until well combined.

Fold in mini chocolate chips and transfer to a small serving dish.

Serve with fresh strawberries, graham crackers, pretzels, vanilla wafers or your favorite cookies for dipping. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator.

 If you love cheesecake you’ll love this cream cheese dessert dip! The combination of cream cheese and mini chocolate chips make it irresistible.

This dip will thicken over time in the refrigerator. If planning to make in advance, I recommend letting it sit out at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving for easier dipping.
