When I want a quick dessert that I know will be a hit, I always think of cookie dough dip. We’ve all been warned about eating cookie dough. However, the great thing about this sweet, decadent dip is the fact that there’s no eggs or flour, so it’s completely safe to gobble up!

HOW DO YOU MAKE COOKIE DOUGH DIP?

If you’ve got five minutes, a bowl, and a spoon, you’re all set to tackle this delicious cookie dough dip. Simply add your softened butter and cream cheese to a bowl and beat until smooth. Add the milk to the bowl and mix until smooth again. To finish, add in all your ingredients except the chocolate chips, which get folded in at the end and sprinkled over the top.

The best thing about this dip is how quick it is to make. I mentioned earlier that it only takes 5 minutes. However, if you decide to make it in advance, be sure to refrigerate it. If you’re serving the dip after it’s been chilled, give it a little time at room temperature so that it’s soft and spreadable.

I use semi sweet chocolate chips because they’re classic in chocolate chip cookie dough. Feel free to use any kind of chocolate that you like; white chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips and butterscotch chips all work great. Think of it like a cookie, whatever your favorite toppings or additions are for cookies, use those in this cookie dough dip!

Other ways to flavor this dip include

  • M&M’s
  • Toffee bits
  • Nuts
  • Sprinkles

Some ideas for what to serve with your dip are

  • Graham crackers
  • Vanilla wafers
  • Pretzels
  • Sandwich cookies
  • Apple slices
  • Strawberries

IS RAW COOKIE DOUGH SAFE TO EAT?

The raw eggs usually included in normal cookie dough are the focus of concern, as you can chance getting salmonella. However, it’s not common for people to get sick eating raw eggs, it’s just a risk that’s good to be aware of. Uncooked flour can also sometimes make you sick. This cookie dough dip is egg and flour free so no chance of salmonella here!

HOW DO YOU MAKE COOKIE DOUGH WITHOUT EGGS?

Eggs are truly only necessary if you’re going to bake the batter. They help bind ingredients together as well as assist in making the cookies a little fluffier. However, if you don’t plan on baking your batter, you can prepare recipes like this dip or your normal cookie recipe and just exclude the eggs without compromising on the taste.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve prepared this dip. The entire family loves it and the recipe has been passed on to friends and relatives who fell in love with it as well. There’s no rule that says great dessert recipes have to be complicated!

      Do you think one could freeze this? Maybe make up little cups to break out when I am feeling weak? Versus eating it all in a day!! Best dip ever.

      Stupid question most likely, but does this use salted or unsalted butter? Thank you!

        You can use salted butter and leave the recipe as-is, or unsalted butter and add 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the recipe!

      Yummy! I am a huge cookie dough fan – so this would be the perfect snack (though I will have to substitute the sugar because I am sugar-free) for late at night.
