Key Ingredients
See the recipe card below for the complete list of ingredients with exact quantities.
- Cream Cheese: Cream cheese creates the rich and creamy base of this dip. I prefer full fat for the smoothest texture, but any variety works.
- Cinnamon: Cinnamon gives the dip its classic snickerdoodle flavor. Use a good quality cinnamon for the warm, cozy sweetness that makes this dip taste like a cookie in dessert form.
Tips and Substitutions
- Soften the cream cheese fully for the smoothest texture. Cold cream cheese will create lumps that are hard to fix.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding a little more brown sugar if you prefer a sweeter dip.
- Swap the yogurt with sour cream for a richer, tangier flavor.
- Serve with sturdy dippers like cinnamon graham crackers, Biscoff cookies, Nilla wafers, or apple slices.

Snickerdoodle Cream Cheese Dip FAQs
Yes. Sour cream works well and gives the dip a slightly tangier flavor. Replace the Greek yogurt with the same amount of sour cream. The dip will still mix smoothly and keep that classic cinnamon sugar flavor.
Popular dippers include cinnamon graham crackers, Nilla wafers, Biscoff cookies, pretzels, and sliced apples. Anything sturdy enough to scoop works great with this creamy cinnamon sugar dip.
Yes. You can make this dip up to 4 days in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge and give it a quick stir before serving. Let the dip come to room temperature before serving.

Notes
- Softened cream cheese: For the smoothest texture, let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for about 1 hour before mixing. Cut into smaller pieces to soften more quickly. Cold cream cheese will create lumps in the dip.
- Greek yogurt choice: Any fat percentage works. Nonfat gives a lighter dip, while whole-milk yogurt makes it extra creamy.
- Sweetness level: Adjust to taste. Add an extra teaspoon of brown sugar if you want a sweeter dip.
- Serving ideas: Serve with cinnamon graham crackers, Nilla wafers, Biscoff cookies, pretzels, apple slices, or teddy grahams.
- Make ahead and storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Bring to room temperature before serving for the creamiest texture.
