Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip

For dough

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon milk or cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup mini chocolate chips

For dip

2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened

2 cups powdered sugar

6 tablespoons milk

1 teaspoon almond extract

Pinch salt

1/2 cup sour cream

10 Oreo (or similar) cookies, crushed

To make dough, beat butter and both sugars with electric mixer until fluffy. Beat in milk, vanilla and salt. Mix in flour just until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop teaspoonfuls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and place in freezer 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, blend cream cheese and powdered sugar in food processor until creamy. Pulse in milk, almond extract, salt and sour cream. Transfer to a bowl and stir in crushed cookies. Gently stir in chilled cookie dough chunks and serve immediately with bread sticks or other dippers. Makes 24 servings.

'Meatballs' with marinara

    Vegetarian ‘meatballs’ a fun, easy and delicious project

    My family has been eating a lot less meat over the past few years. Oh, we still get nice steaks to throw on the grill, and when they show up on the table with oven-roasted potatoes and a mound of dressed arugula, the meal is cause for celebration. But more often than not, dinner will be an amply tricked-out salad with a loaf of bread, a bowl of farro topped with vegetables and a fried egg, or a spicy tofu stir-fry with rice.
