Delicious Cannoli Dip

This is a delicious chocolate chip dip that everyone will devour. My super simple cannoli dip is sweet, creamy, and perfect for sharing! This is an easy no bake dessert that everyone will love!

When you think of dip recipes you might go instantly to savory options like ranch, artichoke dip, etc. I’m here to tell you that sweet options are not to be overlooked! Things like Peppermint Cheesecake Dip, Easy Chocolate Pudding Dip, White Chocolate Cheesecake Dip, Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe | Chocolate Cherry Cheesecake Dip, and Easy Peanut Butter Dip Recipe!

This is one of the easiest dessert recipes that I make. It’s great for the holiday season but also can be served year round. I love that it comes together so quickly and that it can be served right away or refrigerated for a bit if need be!

Kitchen essentials for tasty no bake recipes:

When you head into the kitchen to make some of these great recipes you’ll want to have the best tools on hand.

Of course mixing bowls, a mixerspatula, and some whisks should be on your list if you don’t have ones that you love. I also like to have a set of cooling racks so that my recipes can properly cool before they’re scarfed down by my family!

I like these casserole dishes from Pyrex which are great for no bake recipes and for all your favorite dinners, brownies, cakes, and more.

You can’t go wrong with some good sharp knives and a cutting board. They will always come in handy in the kitchen for recipes of any kind, even desserts!

See how easy that was?! It’s truly incredible how these simple ingredients come together to make such an outstanding dessert that everyone will love. If you are like me and avoiding certain things in your diet, like gluten, this is a great way to still enjoy a cannoli!

Can I make this cannoli dip in advance?

You can make this in advance. In fact, I think it gives the flavors time to meld together a bit more. I don’t think you’d have a problem making this up to a few days beforehand.

Though, in our house that’s a dangerous game because someone will likely eat half of it before the party or gathering and then I’m making a new batch anyway!
