Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free: This easy dessert dip doesn’t use any raw eggs, raw flour or dairy ingredients. Instead, vegan butter, vegan cream cheese, powdered xylitol, brown sugar, vanilla and salt are the main ingredients. Use dairy-free chocolate chips in this recipe, making the whole recipe vegan and gluten-free for anyone with dietary restrictions.

Substitutions

Chocolate: Choose dairy-free chocolate chips, by checking the ingredient label for any milk products. Regular-size, semisweet chocolate chips work the best here, but mini chocolate chips will work too. Dark chocolate chips will make this recipe taste a little more bitter. However, it will have less sugar overall in the chocolate.

Cream Cheese: There are a few brands that make vegan cream cheese. Taste test your cream cheese before using in this recipe. If you enjoy it straight out of the container in a sandwich or bagel, then it’ll be great to use in this recipe! You want to pick a cream cheese brand that aligns as closely with the regular (dairy-based) cream cheese flavor as you can. You can find different brands in the vegan aisle of the grocery store, or buy it online.

Brown Sugar: Light brown sugar is used here, but you can also use dark brown sugar. You can make your own brown sugar by using some xylitol and molasses instead. Although there are healthier options like coconut sugar, replacing all the brown sugar with coconut sugar will not provide the same taste and texture, and I do not recommend it.

Xylitol: This recipe uses powdered xylitol, which can be made by adding granulated xylitol into a spice grinder. You may also find bags of powdered xylitol in the same area as the vegan and gluten-free baking ingredients at the grocery store. Regular powdered sugar may also be a substitute.

Vanilla Extract: Choose pure vanilla extract or a non-alcoholic vanilla flavoring, without any added caramel color or dyes for best results.

Butter: Melt Organics make salted vegan butter sticks, which act very similar to dairy-based butter in taste and texture. These are my favorite vegan butter sticks to use in every recipe!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake Dip Recipe Notes

• To make the dip texture thinner, add a splash of oat milk or another plant-based milk.
• Instead of semisweet chocolate chips, switch it up and add in vegan rainbow sprinkles and vegan white chocolate chips, to make it funfetti dip!
• Add in a spoon of peanut butter to make this a peanut chocolate chip dip. Make sure to adjust the sugar, cream cheese and vanilla flavors as needed.
• Dipping options can be pretzels, chocolate graham crackers, apple slices, vegan teddy grahams, graham cracker sticks or more!
