Why You Must Make
If you love cookie dough as much as cookies, you’ll go crazy for this dessert dip!
- There are no raw eggs like in standard cookie dough, so it’s safe to eat.
- The raw flour can be cooked so it is safe to eat, too. It can contain e-coli bacteria which can bring on very unpleasant symptoms.
- PRO-Tip: Spread your flour on a baking sheet and place in a preheated 350º oven for 5 minutes. The flour should reach 160º which is hot enough to kill the bacteria.
- It’s absolutely irresistible and tastes a heck of a lot like chocolate chip cookie dough!

Expert Tips
This is one of the easiest desserts you’ll ever make! It’s just as appropriate for a girls’ night out as it is for game day (you need to balance out all those salty chips and dips!). A group of our neighbors spent the weekend at a historic hotel south of Indianapolis, and I brought along this chocolate chip cookie dough dip for our midnight snack. My friends went nuts for it!
Here are a couple of hints for making this dessert dip.
- PRO-Tip: Make sure your cream cheese and butter are at room temperature. It will be much easier to mix if they’re not fresh from the refrigerator.
- I like to buy whole Heath Bars and chop them myself. If you’d prefer, you can buy bagged toffee bits.
- You can serve it with any cookie to use as a dipper. Graham crackers, vanilla wafers, chocolate wafers, and even homemade cookies will work.
- I also like to offer sturdy fruit slices like apples or pears for a slightly healthier option. And if you’re a sweet and salty fan, try pretzel knots or snaps!
Frequently Asked Questions

PRO-Tip: If wanting to eat regular cookie dough, cooking the flour first will make it safe. Spread your flour on a baking sheet and place it in a preheated 350º oven for 5 minutes. The flour should reach 160º which is hot enough to kill the bacteria.
Cookies make great dippers. Biscoff cookies, vanilla wafers, graham crackers, chocolate chip cookies and more will work well. Firm fruit like apples can be sliced for a healthy dipping option.
With cream cheese as an ingredient, cookie dough dip should not be left out at room temperature for longer than 2 hours. After that, cover and keep in the refrigerator.
It should freeze well, though I haven’t tested it. Freeze for up to 2 months in an airtight container, and defrost overnight in the refrigerator.
As long as there is no double-dipping going on, which could contaminate the dip, it should be safe to consume for up to 4 days. Note that if it was left at room temperature for longer than 2 hours, it should be tossed.
Yes, this recipe is easily adaptable. Replace the toffee bits with M&Ms or other small candies, sprinkles, or even crushed cookies. Just use your imagination!

When I first saw the title, I thought this would be a watery type thing, I was delighted to find it to be the sturdy texture that it is! Definitely something that would disappear quickly at a party. Tasty post!
Good move to bump meatloaf in favor of cookie dough. 😉 Amazing, as always, Liz.
Now that is my kind of late night snack!
I saw your tweet this morning for the Cookie Dough dip and I went to the store bought the heath bars and made the dip. Just waiting for the flavors to meld a little bit before I dip my cookies in. I have company coming soon so I thought I’d try the recipe first 😉
OMG, bookmarked! Totally making this over the weekend!
This is so much better than meatloaf! I think this would be so great for a kids or teens party, too.
Lovely pic that you posted Lizzy. Just like your friends, I am also going nuts with this cookie dough dip. However, this is totally a new discovery to me and wow! something new on food to add to my knowledge.
I’m totally unlike you, Lizzie, I think I’ve never tasted anything while cooking or baking 🙂
PS love the bottom pic, you gals look very regal on that chair 🙂
Giving up cookie dough for Lent?

I am all over this one Liz. Yumola!!! You’ve given me lots of ideas.

Giving up cookie dough for lent? You must be incredibly strong! My favourite part of baking is sneaking extra spoonfullls of batter. I’ve never made a cookie dough dip before, but this sounds just like my thing. Yum!
Love the photo of you! Wow you all look relaxed and having fun!
The dip sounds like the kids would really love this at a party…. I am sure.. I am not a fan of sweet dips but I would sure give this a dip… who can resist.. can you believe I have never eaten raw cookie dough ever… for you to eat it raw is telling me its time lol! must be great!
My Sister just was talking about a cookie dough dip, I will have to show her this recipe:-) It looks, and sounds way too yummy! 🙂 Hugs, Terra
Liz…you know how to put a smile on my face, as I could probably eat more cookie dough than cookies. This is my kind of treat!
Oh Wow! I have given up sweets and alcohol for Lent. This is totally making me wish I hadn’t given up those sweets, man!
I had no idea something like cookie dip existed! It looks gorgeous and the idea of a double sweet treat (cookie+dip) is very appealing. Lovely photo!
Lizzy ….this looks so good. I’m having a gathering next week and for sure I’m making this.Everything looks so perfect.
Thanks for sharing. 🙂
