Ingredients

Scale

Dip Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup hot cocoa mix
  • 7.5 ounces marshmallow creme
  • 8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed
  • Mini marshmallows, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Whip Cream Cheese: Using a stand mixer or hand mixer with a medium bowl, whip the softened cream cheese on medium-high speed until it becomes smooth and fluffy, which should take about 2 to 5 minutes.
  2. Add Hot Cocoa Mix: Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the hot cocoa mix in increments of about 1/2 cup. Mix until the hot cocoa is fully incorporated and there are only minimal clumps remaining, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Incorporate Marshmallow Creme: Keeping the mixer on low, add the marshmallow creme and blend until fully combined, which will take about 1 to 2 minutes more.
  4. Fold in Cool Whip: Remove the bowl from the mixer and add the thawed Cool Whip. Use a spatula to gently fold the mixture together until it is uniform with no streaks visible.
  5. Transfer and Garnish: Spoon the hot chocolate dip into a serving bowl and optionally garnish the top with mini marshmallows for extra appeal and texture.
  6. Serve: Serve the dip immediately or chill until ready to serve with dippers such as graham crackers, pretzels, cookies, or fruit.

Notes

  • For best results, ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before starting.
  • If you prefer a richer chocolate flavor, use a high-quality hot cocoa mix.
  • Can be made up to a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator; stir gently before serving.
  • Garnish with additional mini marshmallows or a dusting of cocoa powder for presentation.
  • Serve with a variety of dippers such as pretzels, graham crackers, or fresh fruit slices.
