35 Delicious, Sweet Dips For Dessert

Dips are such a great invention, whether you’re craving something sweet or savory to dunk your food into. There seems to be a dip for every flavor. 

The best part? Dips are so easy to make at home, usually only requiring a few ingredients. Of course, you will want to make larger batches if you’re serving a party, but typically, dips do not need to be too large, especially if you are serving lots of different flavors.

Are you thinking about whipping up some sweet dips for an upcoming party, but your inspiration has dried up? Don’t worry about it – we’ve got you covered!

In this article, we have listed 35 different types of sugary, flavorful dips that are just begging to be dunked into by chunks of desserts. There are so many different ideas in this list that we bet you’ll find it difficult to choose just one or two to create.

We recommend that you try all of them!

So, let’s get started. Here are 35 delicious, sweet dips for dessert.

1. Banana Cream Pie Dip

Even while the traditional banana cream pie might be rather delectable, not many people are interested in socializing with a large slice of pie. It’s too big and can get messy if party goers are moving around.

Instead, this dip allows your visitors to walk about and consume their dessert on the go, dunking some banana chunks into the creamy dip as they move.

2. Brownie Batter Dip

This recipe goes out to all the kids (and grown-ups) who like to lick the spoon after baking some brownies. This dip tastes exactly like the real thing, but without the risk of catching salmonella. Win-win!

Although softer than authentic brownie batter, it is just as tasty and rich. However, if you prefer it thicker, add a little more whipped cream for added texture.

3. Cannoli Dip

You’re going to adore this creative dip if you enjoy those delectable, tube-shaped pastries with creamy fillings.

For a true, legitimate cannoli dip, mascarpone, and ricotta cheese are required. You could even choose to dip some cannolis into this cannoli dip… although, that may be a little too good to be true.

4. Caramel Apple Dip

For the best, coziest autumnal vibe, slice up some apples and start dipping.

Cream cheese that has been mildly sweetened and placed onto the bottom of a serving dish serves as the dip’s foundation. Toffee bits are added as a final touch, and caramel is placed on top of the cream cheese layer.

5. Cheesecake Dip

Next up, we have the first cheesecake dip entry on this list… and, trust us, it is certainly not the last!

This is the perfect dip for those who prefer their cheesecakes simple, without all the added garnishes pulling you away from the initial creaminess. Use some strawberries to dip in to create the flavor of strawberry cheesecake!

6. Cherry Cheesecake Dip

See? We weren’t lying… next up on the list, we have the recipe for a delectable cherry-flavored cheesecake dip.

The airy, velvety smooth foundation of this dip is garnished with a sickeningly-sweet cherry pie filling. Everyone will want leftovers, so you might want to make a couple of batches of this one, folks.
