Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip

Hello, my sweeties. Sorry for the neglect but you'll forgive me once you try this. 

I promise.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip (CCCDD)

This one's short and sweet. Just like the product. And trust me, it's an instant hit!

About 10 minutes after I had brought them out

I had made the promise of a cookie dough dip weeks and weeks ago when I discovered that my friends owned a mixer -I've always wanted one but could not justify the $300 for something that wouldn't fit into my kitchen. Fortunately, they were very kind and offered my use of their kitchen in exchange for my goods. Goods as in cookies and dip.

Step 2: Making up the caramel

I read about this at How Sweet It Is -where gluttony meets fitness. I must admit, I regularly troll her blog for yummy treats but have never peeked at the "fitness" side so I never have to face the horrible realization that I can't actually eat whatever I want and stay little.. I just hate running, OK?

Step 5: Look a mixer!

 Anyway, this literally took me about 15 minutes to make and serve which makes it the perfect party bite. It did only take 10 minutes to demolish though -but it's OK, I can make some more..
