Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip

I was searching Pinterest for an easy dessert-like dish that I could make to bring to a family party when I came across this recipe! I had all of the ingredients already (even better!) and just needed to pick up some vanilla wafers or graham crackers to serve with the dip. It was a hit! :)

Ingredients:

- 1/2 cup butter, cut into small pieces

- 1/3 cup light brown sugar

- Pinch of salt

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 8 oz cream cheese

- 1/2 cup powdered sugar

- 3/4 cup chocolate chips

- Vanilla Wafers or Graham Crackers to serve

Instructions:

In a small saucepan, melt the butter, brown sugar and salt over medium/low heat, stirring constantly, until the brown sugar dissolves. 

Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract. Sit to the side to cool at room temperature.

With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy. Stir in the cooled butter mixture.

Add chocolate chips and continue stirring. 

Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and refrigerate. Remove from the refrigerator 15 to 30 minutes before serving. Serve with Vanilla Wafers or Graham Crackers. 

Enjoy! :)
