There are many things I love about the holidays, and one of them is all the fun and festive food. I find myself spending more time in the kitchen than ever before this time of the year, and while it’s generally a good thing, sometimes I don’t have the time or energy to spend 2 hours on a complicated creation. I created this Christmas cookie dough dip when I needed a last minute dessert for a holiday party and it was a HUGE hit! It tastes just like sugar cookie dough, but without the eggs so you can dip to your heart’s content!

How do you make Christmas cookie dough dip?

This recipe is so simple – traditional cookie dough ingredients like butter, sugar and flour get whipped with a mixer and combined with cream cheese and Chobani® Non-Fat Vanilla Blended Greek Yogurt for a smooth and creamy dip that’s irresistibly delicious. I added a generous helping of sprinkles in holiday colors but you can make this dip year round with other sprinkles too. Best of all, this dip comes together in just 5 minutes!

The secret ingredient here is really the Chobani® yogurt – it’s what gives the dip its texture and adds a bit of a pleasant tang to counteract the richness of the cookie dough flavorings.  It’s also lighter substitute for something like sour cream.

I buy the larger 32-ounce container of yogurt, my kids love to eat it for breakfast. I love that this yogurt is all natural, high in protein, low in fat and has no artificial flavors or sweeteners. In fact, I used the yogurt I had left over from this recipe as part of their breakfast and topped it with a pinch of leftover sprinkles, they thought it was the best thing ever!

I used a variety of fresh fruit, pretzels, miniature gingerbread men and graham crackers as dippers for this cookie dough dip, you can use whatever you like best. My favorite was actually the sliced apples.

This Christmas cookie dip is the perfect addition to your menu for Christmas day. Serve it as a snack while opening presents, as an appetizer before the big meal or as a sweet finish.

Ingredients

  • Main Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup Chobani® Non-Fat Vanilla Greek Yogurt
  • 5 tablespoons of butter softened
  • 2 ounces of cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • Additional Ingredients:
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup holiday sprinkles divided use
  • graham crackers, fruit, etc. for dipping

Instructions

  • Place the butter, cream cheese and sugar in a medium bowl. Using a mixer, beat the mixture until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the flour and vanilla extract and beat for another minute.
  • Add the yogurt, 1/4 cup at a time and mix on low to combine.
  • Stir in the sprinkles, reserving 2 tablespoons. Place the remaining sprinkles on top of the dip for decoration.

Notes

This dip can be made up to a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator. I recommend letting it sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before serving.

      Is there a possible substitute for the cream cheese? My hubby loves cookie dough but is not a fan of cream cheese & I’d love to make this for him.

        That’s a good question, and one that I’m not exactly sure of the answer to! My best suggestion would be to use all butter instead of cream cheese, or possibly marshmallow cream?

      How long will this keep in the fridge. I’d need to make it about 24 hours in advance.

        It will definitely be fine made 24 hours in advance! I would add the sprinkles on top right before serving.

      Why the flour? Would it not be good without that in it. Have you ever tried it without?

        The flour is to make it taste like actual cookie dough, you can leave it out but it will be more of a frosting flavor (but still delicious!)

        You can squeeze a little lemon juice over the apples and they’ll hold their color for longer!

        I think it would probably be ok, although I’ve never tasted gluten free flour on its own so I couldn’t say for sure!

      We love sweet dips at our house. There’s just something about funfetti and sprinkles over top that takes it to the next level. This is perfect for the holidays.
