Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (30g) powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) fine sea salt
  • 3/4 cup (95g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Place the all purpose flour in a microwave safe bowl. Heat in 30 second bursts, stirring in between, until the flour reaches 160°F. Note: This removes the raw flour taste and makes it safe.
  2. Let the flour cool for 2-3 minutes. Wait until it's no longer steaming so it doesn't melt your butter in the next step.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter and cream cheese together until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
  4. Gradually add the brown sugar and powdered sugar, beating on medium speed until the texture is smooth and no brown streaks remain.
  5. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
  6. Slowly fold in the heat treated flour using a spatula until just combined. Note: Overmixing here can make the dip too stiff.
  7. Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed.
  8. Transfer to a serving bowl and chill for 15 minutes if you prefer a firmer set.
