- Sprinkles
Instructions
- Blend the Ingredients: Using a hand mixer, blend the softened cream cheese, Nutella, and powdered sugar together until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste the dip and, if you prefer a sweeter flavor, gradually add more powdered sugar, blending after each addition until you reach your desired sweetness.
- Adjust Consistency: Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of half & half (or heavy cream) to the dip mixture to achieve a perfect, spreadable consistency. Blend again until smooth and well combined.
- Transfer & Top: Spoon the creamy Nutella dip into a serving bowl and garnish with mini chocolate chips and/or sprinkles for an attractive and fun presentation.
- Serve: Enjoy the dip with your choice of graham crackers, cookies, pretzels, or fresh fruit like strawberries and apple slices for dipping.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps and help blend easily.
- Adjust the amount of half & half depending on whether you want a thicker dip or a more pourable sauce.
- Use heavy cream instead of half & half if you want a richer, creamier texture.
- Refrigerate the dip for 30 minutes before serving for a firmer texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
