Make this incredibly easy, creamy chocolate dip in just five minutes. It is perfect for dipping strawberries, pretzels, cookies, or marshmallows for any party or cozy night in.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk (or heavy cream for thicker dip)

Instructions

  1. Place the softened cream cheese into a medium mixing bowl.
  2. Beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until it is smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  4. Add the vanilla extract and milk. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat until the dip is completely smooth and silky. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite dippers, such as fresh strawberries, pretzels, or graham crackers.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, substitute the milk with 1/4 cup of melted semi-sweet chocolate chips mixed into the dip base.
  • If the dip becomes too thick after chilling, let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes or stir in a teaspoon of milk to restore creaminess.
  • This dip works well as a sweet dessert appetizer for gatherings.
