S'mores Dip with Cottage Cheese

A side close-up of a fully assembled cottage cheese s'mores dip on a counter next to graham crackers and strawberries.

This cold cottage cheese s’mores dip is creamy, sweet, and slightly tangy—almost like a cross between cheesecake dip and classic s’mores. The cottage cheese adds a little protein and a subtle salty flavor that balances the marshmallow and chocolate perfectly. It’s kid-friendly, crowd-pleasing, and great for summer parties, holidays, or any casual get-together.

Ingredients

16 ounces Good Culture Low Fat 2% Cottage Cheese
1 cup marshmallow fluff/creme
1 1/2 cups cool whip, softened
1-2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon maple syrup optional
Pinch of salt
Cocoa powder see notes

To Serve

Mini chocolate chips, divided
Mini marshmallows
Graham crackers, for garnish and to dip
Strawberries, for dipping

Instructions

Combine whipped cottage cheese, cool whip, marshmallow fluff, maple syrup, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt (optional) to a large mixing bowl.
Using a hand mixer or immersion blender, beat on low or medium until all the ingredients are well-combined with minimal or no lumps.
Add about 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips and stir. Taste test and add maple syrup if preferred.
Pour the mixture into a large bowl or 9.5 inch circular glass dish.
Top the dip with additional mini chocolate chips, crushed graham crackers and mini marshmallows when ready to serve (max 3 hours before serving to prevent sogginess). The dip is best served really cold so chill for 30-60 minutes for best taste and texture.
Serve with sheets of graham crackers and strawberries. Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days!

Notes

Taste test and adjust with more marshmallow, maple syrup or cool whip.
Optional chocolate version: Blend in 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder. Add extra sweetener or a splash of milk to taste, if needed.
To prep ahead: Complete steps 1-4 and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. Mix in the chocolate chips and add the toppings and it's ready to serve!
