Nutella Cream Cheese Fruit Dip
As you may know, February 5 was World Nutella Day. I submitted my entry, a fried Nutella and banana sandwich with cinnamon sugar crust, but a comment on that entry inspired me to make a Nutella fruit dip. It’s basically a variation of this peanut butter dip, which I have made before and absolutely loved. I replaced the peanut butter with Nutella, omitted the brown sugar and added a pinch of salt instead.
It tastes amazing! We used apples to dip into it, but it would taste great with bananas and strawberries as well.
This is my bonus World Nutella Day recipe for all you Nutella-lovers!

Makes approx. 1/2 cupIngredients
3 tablespoons Nutella
3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
pinch of salt
1/4 cup milkMethod
Thoroughly mix Nutella, cream cheese and salt until no streaks of cream cheese remain. Mixture may be a little grainy-looking. Slowly add milk a bit at a time and stir until milk is thoroughly mixed in. You should end up with a nice smooth, creamy dip for your fruit. Store in refrigerator. To soften up the dip after removing from the refrigerator, just stick it in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds.
A simple and great dip. I love it!
yummm.
i’ve made a toblerone dip before, where you just melt toblerone and add cream… its so simple, but delicious.. especially with strawberries!
i think i’m going to have to try this dip nutella is heavenly,
even if it grosses out my american boyfriend
he doesn’t think that chocolate should go on bread.
I just happen to have some leftover cream cheese in the fridge. Sounds like my after-dinner treat tonight will be awesome. Thank you!
Oh boy… I can honestly tell you I’d consume a large quantity of that in one sitting. Using a spoon. That’s just too good looking. It would be fatal to have that around me he he…
Chocolate goes on everything, even toast! Did you hand mix it, would a mixer be better?
Yes, I mixed it by hand. I suppose you could use a mixer, especially if you were making a larger quantity of it.
Nutella and cream cheese would be so good together!
I tried the nutella cream cheese fruit dip and when I added the milk it was really runny. Not smooth and creamy – What did I do wrong? I followed the directions on this page.
It will be very runny when you first add the milk (and make sure it’s the right amount of milk). You need to keep stirring and stirring for it to become smooth and creamy, it will eventually get there!
I tried this too. The salt wasn’t needed. Also, mine was a runny mess – less milk for sure. The flavor is good, proportions off.
Sorry to hear you weren’t happy with it. It definitely is runny when you first add the milk. Keep stirring, perhaps use a whisk and give it a good beating, and it will turn smooth and creamy. I have made this many times with these same exact proportions and it always works perfectly for me.
I know this entry is old, but I just found this page after searching “nutella dip” out of curiosity. Made it a few minutes ago, substituing heavy whipping cream for milk because I didn’t have any of the latter. It turned out delightful. Thanks!
Made this today – added a bit too much milk abd didn’t soften the cream cheese before I added
You must use softened cream cheese or it’s just lumpy – even after heating a bit it was grainy & lumpy. We mixed for 20 mins!
Added a small amount of marscepone cheese and it firms it up – delightful taste
