With St. Patrick’s Day coming up, I can’t help but ‘green all the things’! When time-crunched or when you have a lack of ingenuity {intricate clover recipe this is not}, it’s perfectly alright to resort to simplicity when making holiday-themed recipes. It’s like taking a cue from green beer itself, which is incredibly simple yet wildly popular.
Mint Chocolate Cheesecake Cookie Dip runs with the same crowd – simple, classic, delicious and impressive.
Mint Chocolate Cheesecake Cookie Dip is great for the St. Patrick’s Day potluck at the school, a festive dessert for the family – and even for birthdays when you have a ‘green theme’. I know superhero parties are always popular and this dip can be incorporated into the party menu very easily.
Since Mint Chocolate Cheesecake Cookie Dip is cream cheese based with chocolate and mint – it could also be a great fruit dip too. Print, bookmark and refer to this recipe throughout the year – yet for now with St. Patrick’s Day coming up – it’s an ideal recipe to highlight.
Enjoy!
