How to Make Reindeer Nutella Dip
Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe
Step-by-Step Guide
1. In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and Nutella until smooth and creamy.
2. Spoon the dip into a small serving bowl.
3. Add two candy eyes on top, place the red M&M in the center for the nose, and stick in four pretzels to look like antlers.
Serve and Enjoy!
Serve with graham crackers, cookies, or fruit for dipping.
Important Recipe Notes
- Make sure your cream cheese is softened before mixing. It blends much easier and gives the dip a smooth texture.
- If you don’t have Nutella, you can use any chocolate hazelnut spread. Even a chocolate peanut butter spread will work.
- You can mix the cream cheese and Nutella a day ahead. Just store it in the fridge and decorate with the eyes, nose, and pretzels right before serving.
- Serve it with graham crackers, or you can also serve it with vanilla wafers, pretzel sticks, or fresh fruit like strawberries and apple slices.
