Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 ounces cream cheese Room temperature is key for easy mixing and optimal creaminess.
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar Consider using powdered sugar for an even smoother consistency.
  • 1/4 cup milk Use any milk or a milk alternative like almond or oat milk.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract High-quality vanilla enhances the overall taste.
  • 1 8-ounce tub Cool Whip Thawed; for a healthier option, use whipped coconut cream.
Optional Garnish
  • 2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs Adds a crunchy, nostalgic touch reminiscent of traditional cheesecake.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth using a hand mixer.
  2. Fold in the Cool Whip until fully combined, making sure not to deflate the mixture.
  3. Transfer your Cheesecake Dip into a serving bowl and chill for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Garnish with graham cracker crumbs just before serving.

Notes

For a quicker preparation, make sure cream cheese and Cool Whip are at room temperature. You can customize your dip by adding chocolate chips, fruits, or lemon zest.
