This cheesecake dip is super creamy, rich and completely addicting. It is the ultimate no-bake dessert and SO easy to make! Customize with your favorite mix-in’s and dippers.
You all know I’m a fan of my no bake cheesecake, so I thought why not make a dip for an easy party appetizer. This dip will quickly become a family favorite and one you will bring to all your holiday gatherings and social events. It is just that good.
This is one of those recipes where I always have the ingredients on hand (at least for one of the variations), so it’s a great last minute treat! You could even cut the recipe in half if you just want a little treat for a small get together. I’ve got 4 ways to make this cheesecake dip for you today, but I have to say the caramel pecan is my favorite! Especially with those waffle crisps (the private selection brand from Kroger are so yummy).
How to make
You only need a few simple ingredients to make this cheesecake dip: cream cheese, butter, brown sugar, powdered sugar and vanilla. Find the printable recipe below.
- Mix: Beat the cream cheese and butter in a medium sized bowl. Add in the powdered sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Cream until smooth.
- Add: Stir in your favorite toppings.
- Dip: Enjoy with your favorite dippers. Some of my favorites are the pretzel thins, waffle crisps, apples and graham cracker sticks.
Cheesecake dip variations
There really so many options with this dip! Here are some of my favorite combinations below as well as some of my favorite dippers :)
- Caramel pecan cheesecake dip: Add 1/4 cup chopped pecans to the top and drizzle 1/4 cup caramel sauce over the nuts.
- Reese’s peanut butter cheesecake dip: Mix in 1/2 cup peanut butter with the cream cheese and butter. Then mix in 1/2 cup chopped Reese’s at the end and drizzle melted chocolate or hot fudge over the top.
- Chocolate chip cheesecake dip: Mix in 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips and 1/4 cup mini M&M’s (or one or the other).

Yummy!
I absolutely love this easy, no bake dessert. Perfect for summer fuss free parties!
I’ll be making this for Father’s Day this weekend! My husband is going to love it! Thanks for the recipe
How long would this keep in the fridge?
About 3-4 days.
DEEEEELICISH!!!
This is good and so easy! I just made it simple and can’t wait for the family to try it tomorrow!
So glad you enjoyed it :)
Has anyone tried this with the “whipped” cream cheese? Just wondered if it worked just as good!
I think it would change the texture of the dip quite a bit, but it should still work!
Would this be fine to make 24 hours in advance??? Looks perfect for a party!
I think you can definitely make the cheesecake dip base in advance, but I would wait to add the toppings until the day of. Just give the cheesecake dip a stir and then add the toppings before serving! Hope you enjoy! :)
Oh yes!! I need to try ALL OF THESE!!
Okay, that caramel pecan version has me DROOLING over here!! I would not be able to stop eating! Love this idea, I’ll definitely remember it for the next time my girlfriends come over :) Pinned!
