Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 7 ounces (198 grams) marshmallow creme
- 1/2 cup (85 grams) mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup (50 grams) mini marshmallows
Binding Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (57 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup (38 grams) hot chocolate mix
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) confectioners sugar
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Whip the base by blending softened cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl until completely smooth and creamy, eliminating any lumps. Use an electric mixer for optimal consistency, which typically takes 1-2 minutes.
- Incorporate the sweet components by stirring marshmallow creme, hot chocolate mix, and confectioners sugar into the creamy mixture. The texture will transform into a light, chocolatey cloud-like blend.
- Enhance flavor profile by gently mixing in vanilla extract, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed and integrated.
- Delicately fold mini marshmallows and mini chocolate chips into the mixture using a spatula. Maintain a gentle technique to preserve the integrity of the marshmallows and prevent overmixing.
- Refrigerate the completed dip in a serving bowl for optimal texture. Chilling helps firm the consistency, though it can be served immediately if desired. Recommended refrigeration time is 30 minutes for best results.
Notes
- Opt for room temperature cream cheese and butter to ensure a smoother, lump-free mixture that blends effortlessly.
- Choose high-quality hot chocolate mix for a richer, more intense chocolate flavor that elevates the entire dip.
- Keep marshmallows and chocolate chips visible by folding gently, creating delightful pockets of texture throughout the dip.
- Customize the recipe by swapping hot chocolate mix with different flavors like peppermint, caramel, or even dark chocolate for unique variations.
