This Dip is Seriously the Best!
Did I mention, high protein? It is packed with so much protein that you could literally eat this as a meal. Between the yogurt and the protein powder, you will be all set.
This dip is so fun and festive with chocolate chips and sprinkles on the top. My kids really enjoy eating this holiday chocolate dip and I know yours will, too.
It’s healthy, too. There are no processed ingredients and only wholesome, real ones. Now that’s the kind of snack I want my family to eat over the holidays.

You can whip up this healthy dip within a few minutes with only 6 simple ingredients.
The Ingredient List
Creamy dairy-free yogurt-You can use any plant-based yogurt like a Greek variety. The key is to make sure it is creamy.
Honey-This natural sweetener is perfect for this dip. It’s unprocessed, and wholesome which makes it a great sweetener choice for this chocolate dip. If you are vegan, swap it out for maple syrup.
Unsweetened cocoa powder-You can use cocoa or cacao powder for this recipe. This is what gives the dip its chocolatey flavor.
Vanilla protein powder-I love using the brands Aloha and Truvani. You can definitely use chocolate protein powder, but I prefer vanilla with this dip.
Vanilla extract-I love the subtle hint of vanilla that this extract brings to this chocolate dip. Use a high-quality vanilla extract for the best flavor.
Cinnamon-I love the combination of chocolate and cinnamon. Not to mention, cinnamon has powerful medicinal benefits.
Optional sprinkles and mini chocolate chips-This is the fun part of the recipe. While these items are optional. they really bring a festive kick to this dip. If you aren’t looking to make it for the holidays, I recommend using just the mini chocolate chips.
How To Make This High-Protein Dip
This is an easy recipe that can be made in two minutes. All you need to do is grab your ingredients and a bowl, and you are all set.
Step one: Combine all of the ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Using a whisk, mix the yogurt well until it is smooth and creamy, and all of the powders have blended in nicely.
Step two: Using a spatula, scrape the sides and smooth out the top if you desire.
Step three: Optionally add sprinkles and mini chocolate chips to the top of the dip.
Serve right away with sliced apples, strawberries, and raspberries.
How to Store This Dip
Place a lid over the bowl and store the dip in the fridge. This dip must be kept cold due to the yogurt base. It can stay out on the counter for about an hour at a time.
This dip will last for up to a week in an air-tight container in the fridge.
Tips + Modifications
Are you celebrating another holiday? You can change up the sprinkles to suit whichever season you are in. Are you making it in February? Use Valentine’s sprinkles instead.
If you are vegan, switch out the honey sweetener for maple syrup. It will do the trick and keep the chocolate dip healthy.
