Notes
- I like to use Ghirardelli Premium Hot Cocoa Mix because it has a deep rich flavor and makes the dip extra chocolatey, but use your favorite hot chocolate mix.
- The cream cheese gives a slight tanginess to the dip and keeps it from being overly sweet, so it pairs perfectly with sweet dippers.
- Add extracts to the dip to change up the flavor. Some recommendations are almond, strawberry, orange, peppermint, or maple.
- You can add mix-ins to the dip, like chopped-up candy canes, mini chocolate chips, dehydrated marshmallows, mini m&m’s, chopped nuts, chopped-up candy bars, etc.
- Other garnishes include hot fudge, marshmallow cream, whipped cream or whipped topping, chocolate chips, candy canes, candy, etc.
- Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freeze for up to 3 months.
