PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE DOUGH DIP



PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE DOUGH DIP
This very naughty, delightfully-tasty cookie dough dip has many uses.  Freshly made it makes a wonderful dip and refrigerated, it makes a wonderful spread for crackers.  I can imagine this spread sandwiched between two plain cookies.  It is also really wonderful spread in my crepe recipe.  

4 oz regular cream cheese, softened (125 g)
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (125 mL)
  (sugar-free)
1/4 cup butter, softened (60 mL)
Liquid sweetener to equal 1 cup (250 mL)
3 tbsp powdered erythritol (45 mL)
1 tsp molasses, optional (5 mL)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (2 mL)
1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (125 mL)

In food processor, process cream cheese.  Add peanut butter and butter; process.  Add liquid sweetener, OR SPLENDA® Granular, erythritol, molasses, if using and vanilla extract; process until well combined.  Stir in chocolate chips.

Serve with Cinnamon Cookie Crackers, page 98, Low-Carbing Among Friends, Volume-2.

Helpful Hints:  If your peanut butter is quite a salty-tasting brand, then use unsalted butter or half unsalted and half salted butter.  My hubby actually liked it a bit more on the salty side as he likes salty and sweet combinations.  Without the chocolate chips, this mixture would make a fantastic frosting!
