Description

This Mint Chocolate Chip Dip is a creamy, refreshing dessert dip bursting with mint flavor and studded with mini semi-sweet chocolate chips. Perfect for serving with cookies, pretzels, or graham crackers, this easy-to-make dip combines cream cheese, powdered sugar, mint extract, and whipped topping for a light and flavorful treat that’s ready in just 10 minutes.


Ingredients

Dip Ingredients

  • 12 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
  • Green gel food coloring (to desired intensity)
  • 8 ounces whipped topping (thawed)
  • 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons mini semi-sweet chocolate chips (for topping)


Instructions

  1. Beat Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, add the 12 ounces of room temperature cream cheese and beat with a hand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Sugar, Extract, and Color: Mix in 1 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon mint extract, and green gel food coloring. Use a slightly darker shade of green than desired as the color will lighten when whipped topping is added. Beat until the mixture is well combined, scraping down the bowl sides as needed.
  3. Fold in Whipped Topping and Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the thawed 8 ounces of whipped topping along with 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly mixed and no white streaks remain.
  4. Prepare for Serving: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle with an additional 1 to 2 tablespoons of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips on top for garnish and added texture.
  5. Serve: Enjoy the mint chocolate chip dip chilled with your favorite dippers such as cookies, pretzels, or graham crackers.

Notes

  • Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for easy beating and smooth texture.
  • Adjust green food coloring intensity carefully; the whipped topping will lighten the color.
  • Folding whipped topping gently helps maintain a light and airy dip texture.
  • For variety, try different dippers like apple slices or vanilla wafers.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
