it was the most amazing thing i have ever experienced! good for any snack as well!!
This was really good. My husband wanted it sweeter and sweeter so we ended up adding 3x the powdered sugar and 2x the brown sugar. It was a little sweet for me at that point but he loved it.
Is it possible to make this I to cookies or cake?
Since this cookie dough dip recipe is made without eggs or a leavening agent it wouldn’t bake up into cookies properly. For baked cookies you can try my chocolate chip cookie recipe.
My did not come out as thick as it looks in the picture for the recipe. Did I do something wrong?
Did you try refrigerating it for a bit? That may help thicken it up. Otherwise I would guess there is an issue with the ingredients. Did you make any substitutions?
Is there a way to not use cream cheese? I have a thing about it 🙁
Not really, it is the base of the dip. Sorry!
How long does it take to soften enough for dipping after being refrigerated for 24 hours?
It shouldn’t need longer than 15 minutes or so. I actually enjoy it best right from the fridge.
How long does this stay good go?
You can store the dip for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Can I substitute sour cream and butter for a non dairy option?
I have not tried to make this recipe dairy-free myself so I can’t say for sure how it would taste but you could try it with your favorite non-dairy butter and sour cream replacements.
Can I sub regular sugar for powdered sugar? Thank you!
Granulated sugar would make the dip grainy. If you have a food processor or powerful blender like a nutribullet you could use it to grind up the sugar until very fine for your own homemade powdered sugar.
I’m a diabetic and I took a little taste of it and it was wonderful went back to it about an hour later to pull it out of the fridge somebody had already pulled it out and it was gone so I made a big batch I quit making it with someone else to learn how to make it. It disappeared again it was wonderful. Thank you.
