It’s not too late to put together a star holiday dip! We are featuring our mint chocolate chip dip perfect for vanilla wafers, graham crackers, and cinnamon chips. It’s so good!
It reminds me of my favorite mint chocolate chip ice cream – which happens to come from Braum’s right here in Arkansas. It’s best served cold after a few hours of chilling in the fridge.
This sweet dessert dip is modeled after our holiday fabulous peppermint cream cheese dip.
Ingredients
- Cream cheese
- Condensed milk
- Peppermint extract
- Crushed peppermint
- Mini chocolate chips
- Cool Whip

How to Make Mint Chocolate Chip Dip with Cream Cheese
The only thing standing between you and this holiday dip is…well, nothing!
To begin, add all ingredients (detailed in the recipe card below) into a mixing bowl – starting with the softened cream cheese and ending with the mini chocolate chips.
Tips for Tasty Mint Chocolate Chip Dip
- Serve your dip in a fun holiday-themed dish or tray. I found this sweet little Christmas tree tray last year at Dollar General.
- Make sure to taste test the dip. I like to start with 1/2 tsp peppermint extract and move up from there.
- No chocolate chips on hand? No problem! Just make our other fun holiday dip – peppermint cream cheese dip instead!
Once this mint chocolate chip dip has reached a creamy consistency, it’s time to dish it into your nice dish and set out your favorite dippers for eating. Vanilla wafers give a great “mint chocolate chip ice cream cone” vibe.
