No-Bake Turtle Cheesecake Dip

No-Bake Turtle Cheesecake Dip – Crunchy, creamy, and sweet. This dip has formidable confections that rival most any sweet delicacy.

This No-Bake Turtle Cheesecake Dip is deliciously decadent and it’s one of my most favorite things to make around the holidays. It the perfect dish for family gatherings, but watch out, it’ll disappear quickly!

This season, my sister, son, mom, husband, and I signed up for a “Maintain, Don’t Gain” contest to encourage us to be more conscientious of what we intake and more mindful of how active we are. I may have just sabotaged us all.

I’ve been pretty good about controlling myself, however, I have fond memories, especially during the holidays of sneaking that extra turtle, even after my parents said I was done. It was these memories that inspired this Turtle Cheesecake Dip. And now with this recipe, my kids and husband are doing it too. It’s good. Maybe a little too good.

I left the bowl on the counter for less than 3 minutes and in half that time, my husband polished off 3 quarters of it, resulting in a large smile, mild stomach ache, and forlorn sentiments that he’d be the cause of our contest demise. But it was worth it, he said.

And not only will you be surprised how simple this recipe for No-Bake Turtle Cheesecake Dip is as well as the star ingredient. Chobani® Vanilla Yogurt was a great way to give a hint of vanilla to this cheesecake dip. What I love about Chobani® Yogurt is how delicious it is a substitute for flavorings, sour cream, mayonnaise, or oi, giving it a healthier take on your favorite recipes. It is such a versatile ingredient. I picked it up in a 32-ounce container because my kids love to snack on it. We add some fresh fruit and granola and everyone is happy, even this mom.

I can’t wait for you to try this simply made No Bake Turtle Cheesecake Dip this holiday season. Although I know it is something you will eat all year long. Enjoy friends & Happy Holidays from our Turtle Cheesecake loving family to yours. XOXO San

How do you make no-bake cheesecake dip?

Make ganache.

In a small saucepan, add heavy whipping cream and place over medium-high heat; bring to a boil.

Once it is boiling remove from heat and add chocolate chips, DO NOT STIR THEM IN.

Set aside and let it rest for 5 minutes, then stir until creamy and smooth.

In a large mixing bowl beat together cream cheese & marshmallow cream until smooth and there are no lumps.

Stir in the Chobani® Vanilla Yogurt until well combined.

Place the cheesecake dip in a serving bowl with just a scoop at a time.

Add caramel sauce as much as you would like and to your taste.

Next add chopped pecans, about 1 cup, or to taste.

Lastly, top with homemade ganache or hot fudge sauce, the ganache topping hardens, so you will want a thin layer.

Finish off dusted with a few chopped pecans.

Devour immediately or set in the fridge until ready to serve.

Dippers can include cookies, pretzels, crackers, or pita chips.

How long does no-cake cheesecake dip last?

Homemade cheesecake dip will generally keep for about 3 to 4 days, assuming it isn’t instantly devoured!
