Main Ingredients
- 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping, thawed
- 1 ½ cups mini chocolate chips
- 1 (7 oz) bottle magic shell chocolate topping
Instructions
- Combine cream cheese and powdered sugar: In a large bowl, add both packages of softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Mix together until the mixture is light, smooth, and well combined.
- Add peanut butter and vanilla: Stir in creamy peanut butter and vanilla extract until the mixture is completely smooth and uniform in texture.
- Fold in whipped topping and chocolate chips: Gently fold the thawed whipped topping and mini chocolate chips into the peanut butter mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix as this will deflate the whipped topping.
- Transfer the dip to a serving dish: Spread the dip evenly in a pie dish or an 8×8-inch baking dish, smoothing it out to create a flat surface.
- Add magic shell topping: Pour the magic shell chocolate sauce over the top of the dip. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread it into a thin, even layer that covers the entire surface.
- Chill the dip: Refrigerate the dip for 30 to 40 minutes to allow the chocolate shell to harden and flavors to meld.
- Serve: Serve the chilled Buckeye Dip with pretzels, Nilla wafers, or sliced fruit for dipping.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easy mixing and smooth texture.
- Do not overmix after adding the whipped topping to maintain a fluffy dip.
- Allow the magic shell to fully set in the fridge for that signature crackly chocolate topping.
- Use mini chocolate chips to distribute bursts of chocolate evenly throughout the dip.
- Store leftover dip covered in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days for best quality.
