Dip Ingredients
- 1/2 cup non-fat vanilla Greek yogurt
- 5 tablespoons butter, softened
- 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup holiday sprinkles, divided
For Serving
- Graham crackers
- Fresh fruit (such as apple slices, strawberries)
- Other dippers of choice
Instructions
- Heat treat the flour: Place the flour in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high for 40 seconds until it reaches 160°F. Stir well to break up any clumps and allow to cool before using.
- Mix butter, cream cheese, and sugar: In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, which usually takes about 2 minutes.
- Add flour and vanilla extract: Incorporate the heat-treated flour and vanilla extract into the mixture. Beat again for about 1 minute until well combined.
- Incorporate yogurt: Gradually add the vanilla Greek yogurt 1/4 cup at a time, mixing on low speed to combine thoroughly without overmixing.
- Fold in sprinkles: Gently stir in 1/4 cup of the holiday sprinkles, reserving 2 tablespoons for garnish. Spread the dip in a serving bowl and sprinkle the remaining sprinkles on top for decoration.
- Serve: Serve the cookie dough dip immediately with graham crackers, fresh fruit, and other dippers of your choice.
Notes
- Heating the flour to 160°F is essential to make the dip safe to eat by eliminating potential bacteria.
- You can substitute all-purpose flour with heat-treated gluten-free flour if desired.
- For a richer texture, you can use full-fat Greek yogurt instead of non-fat.
- Keep the dip refrigerated if not serving immediately, and consume within 1-2 days for best freshness.
- Feel free to customize the dip by adding mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts if preferred.
