Ingredients

Scale

Dip Base

  • 1 8-ounce block cream cheese
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (cold)
  • ¾ packed cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Add-Ins and Garnish

  • 1 cup crushed cinnamon sugar cereal (such as cinnamon toast crunch)
  • Additional crushed cinnamon sugar cereal for garnish

Dippers

  • Graham crackers
  • Pretzels or pretzel chips
  • Apple slices
  • Vanilla wafers
  • Churro chips (optional, personal preference)
  • Waffle cone chips

Instructions

  1. Whip the cream: In a small bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream on high speed for 2 to 3 minutes until stiff peaks form. For best results, chill the bowl and whisk prior to whipping. Set the whipped cream aside.
  2. Mix cream cheese base: In another bowl, use a mixer on medium speed to beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Gradually add the brown sugar and cinnamon, continuing to mix until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.
  3. Add cereal and fold whipped cream: Stir the crushed cinnamon sugar cereal into the cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated. Then gently fold in the whipped cream using a spatula, being careful not to overmix to maintain a light and airy texture.
  4. Chill and serve: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Before serving, allow the dip to come to room temperature for easier dipping. Garnish with additional crushed cinnamon sugar cereal and serve with an assortment of dippers such as graham crackers, pretzels, apple slices, vanilla wafers, churro chips, or waffle cone chips.

Notes

  • Using cold heavy whipping cream and chilling your utensils can help achieve stiffer peaks faster.
  • Brown sugar adds a rich molasses flavor, which complements the cinnamon perfectly.
  • The crushed cinnamon sugar cereal provides a crunchy texture similar to churros—cinnamon toast crunch is a great option.
  • Feel free to customize dipping items based on your preference or what you have available.
  • For a firmer dip, chill longer; for a softer dip, reduce chilling time slightly.
