I’m not proud of my snacking behavior this week. My New Year’s resolution was to stop skipping breakfast, and unless you count milky tea, I have definitely broken my resolution. There was the morning I had 3 dates for breakfast (dates, as in the dried fruit, not awkward meet-ups). The next morning, one slice of melting sweet potatoes. And I’m afraid I sunk as low as leftover cold tater tots yesterday morning. And as the saying goes, if you skip breakfast, your eating habits quickly decline for the rest of the day as well. While I should probably be more concerned, I just can’t because this delicious, creamy edible cookie dough dip is the result of some wayward sliding eating habits. It is so very good and worth all the things. This edible cookie dough for one is the happy result. It’s meant for dipping and eating raw.
This Cookie Dough Dip Recipe is Irresistable
I need to know: what’s your cookie dough behavior? When you make chocolate chip cookies, what ratio of dough actually makes it into the oven? I’m afraid I’m good for about one cookie’s worth of dough on my spoon, raw. I lack the patience to wait for the warm cookies to come out of the oven. Plus, cold creamy cookie dough is pure comfort for me. This dip has all the lovely components of cookie dough, but a bit softer and more dip-able! You can dip pretzels for that sweet-salty thang, or you can dip vanilla wafers. I switch off–one pretzel, one cookie, and then suddenly, the whole ramekin is gone.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip Ingredients
Unsalted butter - If you only have salted butter, that’s fine, too–just omit the salt called for in the recipe. Cream cheese - Take this out of the fridge and let it soften on the counter for 30 minutes. Granulated sugar - To make it sweet, of course! Brown sugar - Light or dark brown sugar both work here. Vanilla extract - For that classic chocolate chip cookie flavor Salt - Don’t underestimate how important this salt is for balance. Mini Chocolate Chips - Just 2 tablespoons of mini chocolate chips. If you don’t have mini chocolate chips, you can chop up a chocolate bar.
I had a cookie dough craving, and I solved it without eating a ton of cookie dough. And for that, I should get a medal, don’t you think? I hope this helps you cure a craving! This recipe makes one small bowl of edible cookie dough dip for one. For those of us that cannot be trusted around cookie dough, small batch treats are a gift.

How to Make Cookie Dough Dip
Make sure the butter and cream cheese are softened to room temperature so that everything mixes together smoothly.
Serving Cookie dip
You should serve this with whatever you like to dip! My favorite is salty pretzels because I love the salty and sweet combination! I also like to dip vanilla wafers, sugar crisp wafers, dried banana chips, sugar cookies, and of course, crispy chocolate chip cookies! I actually think you haven’t lived unless you’ve spread cookie dough dip between two crispy chocolate chip cookies, and eaten it like a sweet sandwich. And yes, if you’re a better person than me, you can easily double this recipe and share it with someone on the couch during a Netflix marathon. I just don’t have it in me to share this; it’s really meant for one–sorry! Don’t skip breakfast, or you’ll end up like me, with a plate full of dip and dippers. Well, maybe you wanna be a little like me? :) If you love cookie dough like me, try my mini cookie dough cake for two.
