1. Start by placing softened cream cheese and butter into a mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat until the mixture becomes fluffy and well-incorporated.
2. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, granulated sugar, or brown sugar to the mixture while mixing on low speed to avoid creating a sugar cloud.
3. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture for a warm and flavorful aroma. Continue mixing until the texture is smooth and creamy.
4. Gently fold in mini chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring an even distribution of chocolate chips throughout the dip.
5. If a thicker consistency is desired, sift heat-treated flour over the mixture and stir it in carefully until fully blended. This step is optional.
6. Serve the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip immediately using your favorite dippers like graham crackers, apple slices, or pretzels, or refrigerate for later.
7. For storage, place the dip in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4-5 days. Let it sit at room temperature for 10-30 minutes before serving to soften. Avoid freezing the dip to maintain its creamy texture.
