The possibilities of what you can dip are endless, ranging from pretzels to vanilla wafers, and even including fresh fruit. Bring this dip to your next party for the perfect dessert.

Equipment can have a big impact on how a recipe turns out. I would recommend using the following:

2. Using a hand mixer, beat until fully combined. Making sure there are no lumps.
3. Once everything is combined and smooth, fold in cool whip. Continue until smooth.
4. Once everything has been mixed together and smooth, you can either pop the dip into the refrigerator for 30 minutes, or enjoy right away.

You can also freeze this dip. Place the dip in an air-tight container. Then pop it in the freezer for up to 2 months. You might need to re-whip the dip once it unthaws.
Top Tip
Make sure to line your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing together.
FAQ
You can use low-fat cream cheese if that is your preferred type. I would recommend you use full-fat because full-fat = full flavor.
