Cream cheese dip is an easy baking idea for beginner bakers and kids that love to help out in the kitchen. You only need a few simple ingredients that you likely already have on hand in your pantry.

Grab some cream cheese, whipped cream, powdered sugar, and the sprinkles of your choice and you’re ready to make Unicorn Cream Cheese dip!

Ingredients needed to make Unicorn Cream Cheese Dip 

  • 1 8oz block of cream cheese (brought to room temperature)

  • ½ cup of powdered sugar
  • 1-2 Tablespoons of unicorn mix sprinkles
  • Pink food dye (or your favorite unicorn themed color)

How to make Easy Unicorn Cream Cheese Dip

Place cream cheese and powdered sugar in a large mixing bowl.

Mix on low with an electric mixer (to avoid powdered sugar from flying everywhere) or by hand with a fork.

Add in whipped cream and mix again on high. Add in pink food coloring and mix until all the color is mixed into the dip.

  • Save

Spoon your dip into your serving bowl and cover the top with your unicorn sprinkles. Serve with cookies and enjoy!

Notes: We used 4oz of whipped cream so that our dip was a little denser. Alternatively you can use the full 8oz of whipped cream for a delicious, lighter dip.

When adding your food dye, start with only a small amount. Keep mixing and adding small amounts of dye until you get the right color. It’s easy to overdo it, and I find adding too much dye alters the taste.

hi! I'm shannon

I’m a wife, mom of three, doctor, and blogger! In 2018, I decided to turn my mom blog, into a personal finance blog so others could follow along on our journey to pay off over HALF a MILLION dollars in student loan and practice start up debt. I hope you enjoy following along, and maybe even find some inspiration along the way.
