A creamy, festive green velvet cookie dip perfect for St. Patrick’s Day parties, potlucks, or a sweet treat any time. This dip combines cream cheese, whipped cream, and crushed sugar cookies for a velvety texture with a delightful crunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 3/4 cup (90 g) powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A few drops green gel food coloring
  • 1 cup (about 100 g) crushed sugar cookies (store-bought shortbread or vanilla wafers recommended)
  • Optional: pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Soften the cream cheese by leaving it out of the fridge for about 30 minutes until soft but not melted.
  2. In a chilled mixing bowl, whip 1 cup cold heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. In another large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 3/4 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes on medium speed. Add a pinch of salt if using.
  4. Add a few drops of green gel food coloring to the cream cheese mixture and mix until the color is evenly distributed. Add more drops as needed for desired vibrancy.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula about 10 times until just combined, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
  6. Fold in 1 cup crushed sugar cookies until evenly distributed.
  7. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to let flavors meld and dip firm up slightly.
  8. Serve chilled with dippers such as graham crackers, pretzels, fresh fruit, or vanilla wafers.

Notes

Use gel food coloring to avoid watery dip. Soften cream cheese properly to prevent lumps. Fold whipped cream gently to maintain airy texture. Chill dip at least 1 hour before serving. If too thick after chilling, stir in a tablespoon of milk or cream to loosen. Store in airtight container in fridge up to 3 days. Let sit at room temperature 5-10 minutes before serving if too firm.
