Ingredients

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

• 1/3 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• pinch of salt
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup mini chooclate chips

Fudge

• 1/3 cup butter
• 1/3 cup light brown sugar
• 1/3 cup heavy cream
• pinch of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4-5 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Line a 9X9-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil and set aside. Do not spray.

Make the Cookie Dough

1. In a medium bowl (or in the bowl of a stand mixer) combine the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla, salt, and heavy cream. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Fold in 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips. Set aside.

Make the Fudge

1. In a large pot (like a soup pot) combine the brown sugar, butter, salt, and heavy cream. Stir over medium heat until the butter is melted and the brown sugar is dissolved. The mixture should be smooth and combined.
2. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Gradually stir in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, until the mixture is smooth and thick. You will know when you have enough powdered sugar when the fudge forms itself into a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pot. Let this mixture cool completely before proceeding so the chocolate chips do not melt when combined.
3. Add the fudge base to the cookie dough bowl and stir to combine. Spread the fudge into the prepared baking pan and press into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 chocolate chips on top of the fudge and lightly press them into the batter.
4. Chill until set, about 4 hours, before cutting into pieces. When you're ready to cut just lift out the fudge by the overhang of the tin foil and the cut into squares. This fudge softens as it sits at room temperature. I prefer to keep it in the fridge. 

Fluffy Chocolate Fruit Dip

A blend of cream cheese, melted chocolate, and real whipped cream, 5-ingredient Fluffy Chocolate Fruit Dip is like dunking fresh fruit in creamy chocolate cheesecake!

Ingredients

• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
• 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature

• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Measure chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute; stir chocolate well. Microwave for another 30 seconds; stir until chocolate is smooth. (If necessary, microwave in additional 15-second increments, stirring between each one, until chocolate is completely melted and smooth.) Set aside and allow to cool.
2. Pour heavy cream into a large bowl. Use an electric mixer to whip the cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
3. In another large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Blend in vanilla and melted chocolate. Beat at high speed until light and fluffy.
4. Gently but thoroughly fold in whipped cream until no streaks remain. Cover and chill until ready to serve with fresh fruit, such as strawberries, apple slices, pineapple chunks, melon spears, etc.
