- ½ cup butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 ounces whipped topping
Mix-ins and Toppings
- 1-2 bags Cadbury Mini Eggs (9 ounces each)
- Graham crackers, for dipping
Instructions
- Prepare the Base: Use a mixer to blend the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is soft and creamy, ensuring a smooth base for the dip.
- Add Sweetness: Beat in the powdered sugar gradually until fully incorporated and silky.
- Incorporate Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula to retain the light and airy texture of the dip.
- Crush the Mini Eggs: Place the mini eggs in a ziplock bag, save a few for decoration, and use a rolling pin to crush the eggs coarsely, to add delightful candy pieces throughout the dip.
- Mix in the Crushed Eggs: Stir the crushed mini eggs into the cream cheese mixture evenly, dispersing the candy pieces for texture and flavor.
- Decorate the Dip: Add the reserved whole mini eggs or Easter-themed sprinkles on top as a festive garnish.
- Serve: Present the dip with graham crackers, cookies, or pretzels for dipping and enjoy immediately or chilled.
