Main Ingredients

With just four simple ingredients and a mixer, you can satisfy your sweet cravings in minutes with this chocolate dip recipe.

  • Cream Cheese - For the best flavor and creamiest texture, use a full-fat variety. Lite cream cheese works too if you are wanting to save a few calories.
  • Powdered Sugar - Sweetens the mixture and adds stability to the whipping cream as it gets mixed in.
  • Cocoa Powder - I love using Hershey's dark cocoa powder because it adds such a dark rich color and flavor. Regular cocoa powder is fine too.
  • Heavy Whipping Cream - Gives the dip a light fluffy texture when mixed in.

  3. Increase the speed on the mixer and beat until it is light and fluffy.

Things to Dip in Chocolate

We love serving this dark chocolate cheesecake dip with a variety of fruits and sweet crackers. Here are more fun ideas for enjoying the chocolate recipe in different ways.

  • Crackers and Cookies - animal crackers, Nilla wafers, graham crackers, Oreos, Chips Ahoy
  • Fruit - strawberries, cherries, raspberries, apple slices, bananas,
  • Pretzels - twists, sticks, thins, waffles, chocolate covered, peppermint bark pretzels
  • Marshmallows - large or minis
  • Cake - Angel food cake, vanilla pound cake
  • Breakfast - cherry waffles, banana pancakes

Storage Recommendation

Keep the cheesecake dip in a covered container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Before serving, stir it well to fluff it back up.

Tips and Tricks

  • Soften the cream cheese. Make sure to set it out ahead of time. It's easier to beat it and mix in the other ingredients when it is soft.
  • Mix slowly. Avoid mixing on high speed or else the powdered sugar and cocoa will make a mess.
  • Add extra chocolate. Garnish the dip bowl with mini chocolate chips or chocolate curls.
  • Make a dessert charcuterie board. Spoon the dip into 2-3 small bowls and place on a large tray. Arrange different fruits, crackers, cookies, marshmallows, and pretzels around the bowls.
