Ingredients

Scale

Dip Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips

For Serving

  • Graham crackers
  • Sliced apples
  • Mini pretzel twists

Instructions

  1. Mix cream cheese, peanut butter, and vanilla: Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a medium bowl with a handheld mixer on medium speed, beat together the softened cream cheese, creamy peanut butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  2. Add powdered sugar: Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the powdered sugar, ½ cup at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition to ensure a smooth, fully incorporated mixture.
  3. Fold in whipped topping: Using a silicone spatula, gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the dip is smooth and evenly tan without any visible white streaks. Take care not to overmix to maintain fluffiness.
  4. Incorporate chocolate chips: Carefully fold in the mini semi sweet chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dip.
  5. Chill the dip: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dip for at least two hours to allow flavors to meld and the texture to firm up.
  6. Serve: Before serving, stir the dip lightly to refresh its creamy texture. Serve with graham crackers, sliced apples, or mini pretzel twists for dipping.

Notes

  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing and smooth texture.
  • Do not overmix when folding in whipped topping to keep dip light and airy.
  • Dip can be made a day ahead and refrigerated tightly covered.
  • Try substituting mini peanut butter chips for the chocolate chips for a peanut butter twist.
  • Keep the dip refrigerated until serving to maintain freshness and texture.
