preview for With Our Gingerbread Cheesecake Dip, Double-Dipping Is Inevitable

This delightfully festive dip has all the warm, spiced flavors of your favorite holiday cookies transformed into a fluffy and light spread for gingerbread cookies, graham crackers, or pretzels. A mashup of gingerbread and creamy cheesecake, this is a great alternative holiday dessert to serve for your next party! Guests will constantly ask you for the recipe, and don’t judge if you catch some double-dipping action going on. Read on for some tips on how to make this dip:

The spices:
This dip gets its signature gingerbread flavor from a blend of ground cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. If you like a stronger spiced flavor, feel free to increase the amount of any (or all) of the ground spices in your dip. Be sure to taste as you go.

The base:
Cream cheese adds tang and gives this fluffy dip its structure and cheesecake flavor. Be sure to let your cream cheese block come to room temperature before you start cooking for the smoothest, most luxurious texture. And to finish things off, fold in Cool Whip or fresh whipped cream. This lightens things up in a major way.

The dippers:
This dip is sweet, so it’s a natural pairing with other ginger-based treats like gingersnaps. It’s also nice with something more mild like Nilla Wafers or graham crackers. Or, for a sweet-meets-salty moment, serve the dip with pretzel rods or Ritz crackers.
