Heather’s recipe tips

  • Soften the cream cheese. Make sure to soften the cream cheese to room temperature and use an electric mixer to get it nice and creamy.
  • Be very careful with the mint extract. Make sure to use just a very little bit, I recommend an eighth of a teaspoon. You can even leave it out and just have the mint flavor from the Andes candy if you prefer.
  • Fold in the whipped topping. Make sure to fold in the whipped topping with a spatula. Don’t use the mixer for this step.

Variations

You can adjust the ingredients to make different variations of this Andes Mint dip. Here are a few suggestions.

  • Peppermint bark. Substitute the Andes mints with crumbled peppermint bark.
  • Thin mint dip. Add in some crushed Thin mints cookies.
  • Marshmallows. Stir in some mini marshmallows for added texture.
