Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip – Helpful Tips and Tricks
- Out of half and half? No problem, you can swap it for milk or the non-dairy milk of your choice. Keep in mind the texture won’t be as creamy and the flavor may vary if you use a substitute.
- Soften the butter. If you forget to set the butter out ahead of time, you will be glad to know you can speed up the process. Add water to a bowl and microwave. Then pour out the water and dry the dish. Then place the butter inside while it’s still hot and it will soften it quickly.
- Heat the flour if you’d like. There are many articles that state eating raw flour is bad for you. If it’s a concern for you, place it on a sheet pan in the oven at 350 degrees for 5 minutes.
Kitchen Tools Needed
- Mixer – Using a good quality mixer will ensure that the texture is perfect!

FAQ – Common Recipe Questions
Can I make this without a mixer?
Yes, absolutely! While it will take longer to whip up, it’s still going to be just as delicious when mixed by hand. You will need a strong whisk and whip it by hand until it’s thick and creamy.
What do I use to dip in it?
You can really use anything you’d like. We typically reach for mint Oreos because they added mint from the cookie is so good!
Regular Oreos, wafer cookies, or even chocolate chip cookies are all tasty options as well. You can also use pretzels, graham crackers, or eat it by the spoonful.
Can I bake the dough?
No, I’m sorry, but it will not turn out if you try to bake this dip. This is a dip, not an actual cookie dough. In order to bake it and have them turn out properly, you would need to add several ingredients.
How do you store leftovers?
Place the dip in a sealed container with a tight-fitting lid. It will last in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Or for a chilled treat, place it in the freezer for up to 1 month. The texture will be slightly different, but you can eat it frozen or thawed.
Enjoy!

Sorry but what is half and half? I'm in the UK xx
It is a mixture of milk and cream. You can substitute either milk or cream. Hope that helps! Enjoy. XOXO
Yum! This goes into my "Will Make It" recipes.
Thank you for sharing this fantastic recipe! I've scaled it down (and converted to UK grams) and included it in a mint chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream recipe on my blog. I hope you don't mind! I credited you as the creator of this very addictive cookie dough recipe!

This looks amazing. I am pinning it to remember for later. Thanks for the recipe.
Where would I find the plain unstuffed Oreo wafer things like in the picture????
They're not unstuffed, they're just mint cream oeros
Why does most recipes call for a stand mixer? I can't afford one and a lot of recipes just don't cut it with a hand mixer, they get all gummed up and wont turn anymore. I love the look and sound of the ingredients for the cookie dough dip. As you, I am a great cookie dough fan, and brownie dough fan and…
This one will work with a hand mixer. Let us know how it goes. Enjoy!
I'm in love with that colour!! The colour itself is so enticing. LOL

What's half and half?
What's "half and half"?
It is a mixture of 1/2 milk and 1/2 cream. You can substitute either milk or cream. Hope that helps! Enjoy. XOXO
Not sure eating raw flour is such a good idea.
I heard it's bad to eat raw flour too:(
Pretty much everything is bad for you in some scenario. Raw flour in this small of a quantity is at the bottom of my list.
You can bake the flour at 350 for 5 minutes first, and that should kill the bacteria. And I also agree that it's pretty rare for any harmful stuff to actually be in the flour anyways.
Would it be okay to use peppermint extract instead of mint extract? I don't have any mint extract and I can't run to the store. What would the flavor difference be? Thanks!
Absolutely you can use peppermint. Peppermint has menthol in it and gives a cooling feel to the tongue. So your flavor will be cooler but delicious none the less. Enjoy and let us know how it goes.
That looks so fun!!!
With what I can change the half and half to make it dairy free? ?
probably almond milk or rice milk
This was really good! I just scaled down the mint extract from 2 tsp. to 1tsp. because it would be really minty :). I love this!
i made this! it makes enough to fit into 3 small ramekins! is really really good! will use as dip for vanilla cookies…..i'm in the UK so for "half-and-half" i used half semi-skimmed milk and half single cream- this worked fine for me :)i used peppermint extract instead of mint extract and this was good- (for anyone else doing this, you only need 1-1.5 teaspoons of it) Amazing! 🙂
Can I use creme de menthe instead of mint extract cause I can find them in japan.. thank you
I am making this for a class project. How much would I need to make to serve 20-ish people
