Ingredients

Scale

Base Dip

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

Add-ins

  • 1 cup chopped pecans, divided
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

Toppings

  • 1/3 cup caramel dip
  • 1/3 cup chocolate syrup

Instructions

  1. Combine cream cheese and powdered sugar: In a medium mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
  2. Fold in whipped topping and mix-ins: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until fully incorporated. Then add ¾ cup of chopped pecans and ¾ cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips, mixing lightly to distribute evenly without overmixing.
  3. Spread the dip: Transfer the dip mixture into a 9-inch pie plate, spreading it evenly into a smooth layer for a clean presentation and easy dipping.
  4. Prepare caramel drizzle: Heat the caramel dip slightly in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds to soften it, making it easier to drizzle over the dip.
  5. Drizzle toppings: Drizzle the warmed caramel dip and chocolate syrup evenly over the top of the spread dip, adding visual appeal and extra flavor.
  6. Finish with remaining toppings: Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of chopped pecans and ¼ cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the caramel and chocolate drizzle for crunch and texture.
  7. Serve or chill: Enjoy the cheesecake dip immediately for the best creamy texture, or refrigerate it until ready to serve to let the flavors meld and the dip set slightly.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the dip.
  • 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.
  • Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
