This Cookie Dough Recipe makes an irresistible Dessert Dip! Great for game day or casual gatherings.
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
We make it healthier to eat than regular cookie dough by eliminating the chance of food poisoning from raw eggs or raw flour. But it’s a high-calorie, high-fat treat, so it’s not considered healthy, just safer.
Do not use raw eggs in your dip. Instead, the combination of cream cheese, butter, sugar, and vanilla comes close to the texture of raw dough. Do not use raw flour. This cookie dough dip doesn’t contain flour, but this is another reason not to indulge in regular cookie dough. But this cookie dough dip IS safe.
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!

I think I consume more cookie dough than I do actual baked cookies these days 😉 glad for a safe excuse to do exactly that. Thanks, Liz!
When I get to full on diet mode, there is not much that I break my diet for… this is one of those things! Haha… looking mighty delicious! Thanks for sharing! <3 – http://www.domesticgeekgirl.com
This sounds like a fantastic midnight snack! How fun. I imagine this would disappear quickly in my house.
Oh WOW that sounds and looks amazingly dangerous! Love the bowl you are serving this in too!
Thanks for bringing this one back around – I need to try it for our next gathering. So easy and it sounds delicious. FUN!
I love the idea of using the cookie batter as a dip! Very original!
OK my comment is still there from 2012 lol, and I was still Cheap Ethnic Eatz, weird to see. And liek this recipe just as much now as I did back then. I feel I would need to pair with apples for a healthier option.
Yes please, this sounds like the perfect midnight snack to me!
I’ve been thinking about you Liz, now that the Packers are out of the play, I’m so, so, so sorry. But at least you get your house back!
JT always glares at me when I eat cookie dough…we did this all the time as kids (and maybe even every now and then) and never got sick. I’m afraid I would love this a little too much and there would be no one else to share it with.
I believe cookie dough dip will have to be made when lots of people are coming over or I’d eat it all. I too love cookie dough. No eye rolling. 🙂
A nice sweet dip for the Super Bowl:@)
I really want this right now! I love that you added Heath bar!!! Yum, Hugs, Terra
This sounds simply wonderful Liz! WOW! Who knew just a few simple ingredients could come together to create such a wonderful treat? I’m going to make this soon but I’m a little nervous. I think I may eat the whole thing all by myself!
wow amazing.. i will skip using it as a dip and eat them by the spoonfuls 🙂
