Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup butter, slightly softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups rolled oats (old-fashioned or quick, see Note)
- 2/3 cup plain M&Ms (give or take)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Cream the Base: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese, slightly softened butter, and creamy peanut butter until smooth and well combined.
- Incorporate Sugars: Add the powdered sugar, brown sugar, flour, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Beat until smooth and fully combined.
- Mix in Oats: Using the paddle attachment on your stand mixer or a wooden spoon, gradually mix in the rolled oats. Adjust the amount of oats based on your desired thickness. For a thicker dip, add more oats. Note that the dip will firm up slightly in the refrigerator.
- Add the Goodies: Fold in the M&Ms and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dip.
- Chill and Serve: Store the dip in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Serve with pretzels, graham crackers, or apple slices for dipping. Enjoy!
Tips
- Oats: Start with about 1 ½ cups of oats and add more until you reach your desired thickness. Quick oats are finer and will make the dip thicker, so you might need less.
- Serving Suggestions: This dip pairs perfectly with salty pretzels, sweet graham crackers, or fresh apple slices. It can also be spread on toast or used as a fun topping for pancakes or waffles.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The dip will firm up as it chills, so let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving if needed.
Notes
- Customization: Feel free to customize this dip with your favorite add-ins like crushed nuts, different types of chocolate chips, or even dried fruit.
- Consistency: If the dip is too thick after refrigerating, let it sit at room temperature for a bit or stir in a splash of milk to loosen it up.
This Monster Cookie Dough Dip is sure to be a hit at your next gathering, bringing all the deliciousness of monster cookies into a fun, shareable form. Enjoy!
