Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 0.25 cup creamy peanut butter
- 8 ounce cream cheese (softened)
- 0.75 cup powdered sugar
- 0.5 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 8 ounce Reese's peanut butter cup Minis (or about 1.5 cups chopped)
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and whisk in the brown sugar and 0.25 cup of the creamy peanut butter. Heat until the sugar dissolves (about one minute). Remove from heat immediately and allow to cool completely to room temperature (this step is very important).
- In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese with the powdered sugar until light and creamy (about 3-4 minutes – do not skimp on the beating time).
- On low speed, gradually add the cooled brown sugar and peanut butter mixture to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until just combined and smooth.
- Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips and the mini Reese's peanut butter cups.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dippers such as pretzels, animal crackers, graham sticks, or apple slices. Alternatively, cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
This dip can be made up to 2 days in advance. Keep it refrigerated until ready to serve for the best texture and flavor. If using salted butter, you may want to reduce the added salt in other components, if any, but it typically works fine in this recipe.
