Grinch Cookie Dip Ingredients

1/2 bag sugar cookie mix
4 tablespoons heavy whipping cream, approximately
1 drop green food gel
Sprinkles for heart

How to Make the Grinch Dip

In a stand mixer or large mixing bowl, add in softened cream cheese. Whip it with the stand mixer or hand mixer on medium speed until smooth.

Add in your sugar cookie mix and whip the mix together on medium speed.

Once it’s combined, add in your heavy whipping cream slowly. Mix it together until thick. (If it is dry, add more heavy cream slowly until it’s think but moist).

Add in your green food coloring and whip well.

Place the cookie dip mixture into a serving bowl. Top with red sprinkles in the shape of a heart or mix in Christmas sprinkles throughout the dip.

Serve with graham crackers or ginger snaps.

How do I soften the cream cheese?

The best way to soften your cream cheese is to let it sit at room temperature an hour before you make your Grinch dip. You can also microwave it for about 10 seconds if you forget or are in a hurry.

Could I make this dip year-round?

Absolutely, this sugar cookie dip is one of our favorites for any occasion! You could do any color food color and sprinkles you wanted! For example, it would be great at a gender reveal in pink or blue or Halloween party with orange food color and bat sprinkles!

What do you serve with Grinch cookie dip?

We love to use graham crackers or ginger snaps, but you could also include Oreos, animal crackers, or any other cookie you like!

How long is this Grinch Dip good for?

If the dip is left out for a party, it should be eaten or refrigerated after 2-4 hours. You can store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the refrigerator.
