Ingredients

• 1 (8 oz) block cream cheese (softened)
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 (8 oz) container frozen whipped topping (thawed)

3. Step 3: Warm the caramel dip slightly in the microwave for a few seconds to make it easier to drizzle. Drizzle the caramel sauce and chocolate syrup evenly over the top of the dip.

Tips & Variations

• For extra flavor, try adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture before combining.
• Swap pecans for walnuts or almonds if preferred.
• Use peanut butter or butterscotch chips instead of chocolate chips for a different twist.
• Serve with graham crackers, apple slices, or pretzels for dipping variety.

Storage

Store leftover cheesecake dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Before serving, give it a gentle stir to refresh the texture. This dip is best served chilled but can be left at room temperature for 15–20 minutes to soften slightly.

• Thaw the whipped topping completely before folding in for optimal texture.
• Use a microwave-safe bowl when warming the caramel dip and heat for short intervals to prevent overheating.
• This dip pairs well with graham crackers, apple slices, pretzels, or vanilla wafers.
