I love no-bake desserts, so, I took the idea I used to make my Three Ingredient Fruit Dip and mixed in additional ingredients for traditional cheesecake flavor. This recipe comes together in less than 15 minutes and is a great choice when you need a dessert that you can make ahead of time. It’s also a great choice to serve when you’ve got to feed a crowd since it can be doubled or tripled easily.
Tips For Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Dip
- Use room-temperature cream cheese to ensure a smooth and creamy texture.
- Beat the cream cheese until it’s fluffy before adding the other ingredients.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips gently to avoid over-mixing.
- If you’re making this dip ahead of time, cover it and store it in the fridge until ready to serve.

sooo good!
delicious!
try using normal chocolate chips, blending them, and adding the powder in. It is easier to eat because then you do not need to pick up any chocolate chips and they are evenly shared. Just be shure to use half a cup of normal ones if you want it to taste the same.Reply

This came together in a snap and tastes delicious! I didn’t have enough chocolate chips so I used 1/3 C chocolate chips, 1/3 C dessicated coconut, and 1/3 C chopped pecans.Reply
