Chocolate Chip Toffee Dip for Valentine's Day. Easy to make and deliciously addicting! #chocolatechip


A few weeks ago we had company coming over and I made two dips. My Reese’s Peanut Butter Dip and this Valentine’s Day dip. Hopefully my friends are getting used to the idea that we eat holiday treats a month before the actual event.

This toffee chocolate chip valentines day cheeseball recipe was very easy to make. Unlike the Reese’s Dip, you want to refrigerate this one for an hour or two to let the cream cheese, butter and sugars harden a little bit. That way you can shape it and cover it with sprinkles.

How to make a Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball

In a big mixing bowl combine softened cream cheese and butter. Beat until fluffy for about 3 minutes.

Add sugars and beat until completely blended. Fold in chocolate chips and toffee bits.

Wrap mixture in plastic wrap and stick it in the refrigerator for 1 1/2 hours. I laid a piece of parchment paper on my serving dish and removed the cheeseball from the wrap and put it on the paper. I then patted the sprinkles onto the cheese ball.

Yes, my hands were sticky. Yes, sprinkles fell off and went all over the serving plate. When it was done, I tilted the plate and let the sprinkles fall off onto another plate on the counter. I saved my sprinkles (they were perfect to use in homemade confetti cupcakes). You could throw them away though, or repeat the patting process with them!

At this point, EAT. I used pretzels, animal cracker and graham sticks to serve. However, the leftovers were great with apple slices! I wish I had served apples in the first place! The toffee bits in this dip really stood out and made it irresistible! So addicting!

  1. This is beautiful and sounds tasty but I’ve never heard of toffee bits before. Are they something you buy in the baking section?

    1. I buy them in the baking aisle. You can take Heath bars (or Skor bars) and chop them up instead if you can’t find the bits.

  2. I made this for my husband’s 50th surprise birthday party and it was a BIG hit! People were hesitant to eat it at first but when the first person dug in, it was full speed ahead. All I kept hearing was, “What is that!” My 17 y/o nephew made another one last night. It is addictive!!! Thanks so much; I can’t wait to try all of them….

  3. Ok this is completely out of control is the very best way possible. I’ve been seeing this all over Pinterest the past 2 days Aimee! LOVING all of these sprinkles 😉

  4. I have a weakness for dips, especially ones that have toffee and chocolate chips in them. I love the heart shape too, so cute!

  5. Aimee, are you kidding me with this cuteness?!? This is the most adorable cheeseball I’ve ever laid eyes on {wait until I get my lips around it…LOL!}. Looks amazing. I so, so wish our school allowed homemade treats…because I would totally bring this to both kids’ parties. SUPER awesome.

    1. hahha, you crack me up Kristi!! Well, if the kids can’t have it at school you just need to make it for home!

  6. I love toffee! This sounds super tasty (even if I’m way too lazy to shape this into a heart :))
