Prep time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 (8 oz) pkg. cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 tsp. salt
1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Pretzels, graham crackers, or fruit for dipping

Directions

1.  With a stand mixer, beat butter, cream cheese, sugar, and brown sugar until combined (about 1.5 minutes).  You will have to scrape down the sides with a spatula a few times.  Do not over mix.

2.  Slowly mix in the salt and vanilla.

3.  Gently stir in chocolate chips.

4.  Serve with pretzels, graham crackers, or fruit.  Cover and refrigerate leftovers.

My husband and kids give this Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip 5 stars, so it's been added to the Favorites list!  And my favorite part?  It uses common ingredients, it only takes 5 minutes to make, and everyone loves it!  You can't beat that.
