Hi guys, I'm Laura Vitale and on this episode of Laura in the Kitchen, I want to share with
you - I mean it's a recipe but I'm not even going to call it that, it's a fabulous idea,
something that you can put together very last minute, perfect for kids.
It's what I call a cookie dough dip.
Everyone that I know loves raw cookie dough.
Now it's not something that I advise you snack on because there's raw eggs in it and raw
flour, so I thought why don't we make a dip version, which I've been seeing everywhere
and I thought you know what's really great about this?
Easter is around the corner, pretty much, how fabulous would it be for you to make something
like this so you can have your kids help you because there's no baking involved.
And have this be something that you pick at when everybody's over.
I typically love cannoli dip for that sort of thing, for like a game night or something
like that, but this is your next best thing if you are a lover of cookie dough.
The list of ingredients is short and sweet, you might already have all of them on hand
so I'm thrilled to share this with you.
You'll need cream cheese and butter, both softened at room temperature, you'll need
powdered sugar, brown sugar, semi-sweet mini chocolate chips, a little heavy cream, some
vanilla extract, a small pinch of salt and the cookies of your choice to dip in.
I mean if that's not easy, then I don't know what is.
This is great, like I said, to get your kids involved in, Mia loves to be in the kitchen,
she's napping right now or I would have her in here with me.
Thumbs up this video, let me know down below if I should make that a weekly thing, have
Mia pop in and out, she loves to be in the kitchen.
She loves to cook, but obviously, I don't want her to be near the stove, but this is
great because she loves to mix and mix, and you can have them have at it, it's fabulous,
like I said, no cooking, all pleasure, no work.
I'm the queen of that!
Alright, let's get started, I'm going to use a handheld electric whisk for this, and what
I'm going to work on first is making sure that I whip together the butter and the cream
cheese so that it's nice and soft.
Okay, I'm just going to add in some vanilla, just going to shake my vanilla to make sure
I get all the beans in there.
And I'm going to add in the brown sugar and the salt, just a small pinch, and I'm going
to cream this together well because I want to make sure that there are as few lumps as
possible in the brown sugar and I'm going to let that go and we will continue.
Drizzle in a little heavy cream.
Get that combined, you need two to three tablespoons of heavy cream.
Get that all in there.
And now just whisk in your powdered sugar.
Whew!
Hold on!
Slow it down.
That is perfect, and now you just stir in your mini chocolate chips.
And look at that, you have transformed a few ingredients into the most delicious creamy
dip.
Now you may be thinking it's a little runny, which it isn't.
It's a dip, but if you're going to pop this into the fridge, which my recommendation is
to pop it into the fridge for a little bit before you serve it, although I do like it
more at room temperature because it's nice and creamy and delightful.
Then it will thicken, so you've gotta give it a little bit of movement - you need to
have a little bit of that creaminess before you pop it in the fridge, otherwise it gets
way too hard.
Now like I said, I really like this at room temperature because you get the creamy factor
that you just cannot understand.
Graham crackers, I like chocolate graham crackers for this, I will eat this on my shoe laces,
I will eat this on my rubber spatula, I will just eat this on whatever because it is delicious.
That was this side.
No words for how good this is.
I'm telling you if you love cookie dough, this will be your best friend forever.
I need that to get away from me because it's going to be a bad idea.
Mmm!
Maybe one more won't kill me.
LauraintheKitchen.com will have the recipe for you.
