Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2–3 tbsp milk (whole or 2%)
- Pinch of salt
- Graham crackers for dipping
Instructions
- Soften the cream cheese and butter by letting them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes or microwave for 10 seconds carefully.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and unsalted butter until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes on medium speed.
- Gradually add powdered sugar and brown sugar, beating on low speed first then medium speed until well combined.
- Add unsweetened cocoa powder and a pinch of salt, mixing on low until just blended.
- Pour in vanilla extract and add milk one tablespoon at a time, mixing after each addition until creamy and scoopable consistency is reached.
- Whip the dip on high speed for 30 seconds for extra fluffiness.
- Chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld and texture firm up.
- Serve chilled with graham crackers arranged on the side.
Notes
Softening cream cheese and butter properly is key to a smooth dip. Add milk gradually to control consistency. Chill for best flavor and texture. If too stiff after chilling, let sit 5-10 minutes or stir in a splash of milk before serving. Avoid over-beating after adding sugar to prevent graininess. Use Dutch-processed cocoa powder for richer flavor. Variations include peanut butter swirl, mocha espresso, dairy-free substitutions, and fresh berries.
