Ingredients to make Hot Chocolate Dip
- Cream Cheese

- Mini Marshmallows: for topping
- For serving: Nilla Wafers, pretzels, cookies, graham crackers
How to make Hot Cocoa Dip
Step 1: Beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form.
While many dip recipes call for cool whip, I love to make my own homemade whipped cream instead as it is so light and fluffy!
Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until fluffy.
Mix the whipped cream and cream cheese together until smooth.
Step 3: Mix in the instant hot chocolate mix until smooth using a rubber spatula.
Top the hot chocolate dip with mini marshmallows and serve with Nilla Wafers and graham crackers, crackers, or cookies for dipping.
This makes such a cute dip for the holidays and is beautiful on a dessert platter.
I like to serve mine in a bowl surrounded with all of our dippers.
My personal favorite was the Nilla Wafers dipped into the hot chocolate dip. I can’t get enough!

This cocoa dip is so light, fluffy, and tastes just like hot chocolate.
It only takes a few minutes to throw together and is delicious leftover too.
Store any leftover hot cocoa dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, if it lasts that long!
This dessert dip never lasts long in our house!
