15 Dessert Dips to Make You Swear Off Baked Goods

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Fairfield chapter.

It’s the heat of the summer and the last thing you probably want to do is turn on your oven. I got the idea to make a dessert dip when I had a Dip Party at work. Everyone made their own dip, but to my surprise there were only three dessert dips including my own. I made a Samoa Cheesecake Dip for a work party, and let me tell you it was a huge hit. If you’re not a coconut fan, any dip on this list is sure to be a crowd pleaser on a hot summer day, or for your next Netflix binge.

2. Peanut Butter Brownie Dip
