Oreo Cream Cheese Football Dip
- 15 OREO cookies (crushed)
- 8 oz. cream cheese (softened)
- 1/2 C. butter (softened)
- 2 C. powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp. chocolate syrup
- 1 C. mini chocolate chips
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter with an electric hand or stand mixer for 3 minutes until smooth and fluffy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue beating for another 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Reserve 3-4 tablespoons of this cream cheese mixture for football laces (step 5)
- Mix in chocolate syrup and crushed OREO cookies, until fully combined.
- Transfer the dip mixture to a piece of parchment paper, shaping it into a football. Wrap plastic wrap tightly around the shaped football and refrigerate for at least an hour, until firm
- Once chilled, remove the plastic wrap and transfer the football dessert dip to a serving plate. Cover the football with mini chocolate chips, pressing them gently to make sure they stick. The cream cheese football should be fully covered so that it's all brown like a football.
- Transfer the reserved cream cheese mixture (from step 1) to a Ziploc bag or piping bag. Cut off a small corner, and pipe the laces onto the football.
- Serve with your favorite dippers. Some of my favorites are Nilla Wafers, pretzels, and apple slices.
