Chocolate Fruit Dip is heavenly with the best cream cheese mixture loaded with chocolate. This is the best dip for fruit and super easy.
We love fruit and sometimes I make this chocolate dip as an extra treat. It is similar to traditional cream cheese fruit dip but with a chocolate twist.
It is perfect for holidays, birthday parties, baby showers and more. However, this easy dessert dip is easy enough that you can make this for movie night. I also make The Best Cheesecake Dip Recipe. For more chocolate flavor, try making Slow Cooker Chocolate Fondue Recipe.

How to make Chocolate Fruit Dip
Step 1. First, add the cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a large mixing bowl. Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature so it will be easier to mix together.
Step 2. Use a handheld mixer or stand mixer to mix everything until smooth and creamy. Then add the cocoa powder and the vanilla extract until it is well combined.
Step 3. Finally, gently gold fold in the whipped topping into the chocolate cream cheese mixture until combined. This part should be done by hand and not with the mixer.
Step 4. Serve the chocolate mixture with your favorite fresh fruits. Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Yes! In fact, I think it is better to make it a day ahead. It gives it more time to blend the flavors.
Plus, if you are serving this for a party or event, it saves time to make it in advance.
Just make sure to store it inside an air-tight container in the fridge until ready to serve.
