Samoas Dip Recipe posted by Staff Writer Pin Share Tweet Email Jump to RecipeThis Samoas Dip recipe has a sweet cream cheese base, caramel filled Hershey Kisses, crushed shortbread cookies, and toasted coconut! Yay!! It’s Samoas week!! How thrilling is that?! Last week I told you that Thin Mints are my favorite Girl Scout Cookies. And they were….. last week. But today, I’m thinking that Samoas are my favorite. I’m like….. 48% sure. I think. I do know for sure (like 79%) that Thin Mints and Samoas are my top 2 at all times. They sort of alternate. This Samoas Dip recipe actually came from the Girl Scout Cookies Series I did 2 years ago. It was one of my favorites, so I just had to bring it back this year. This dip doesn’t actually involve any samoas! Which I sort of love and sort of hate at the same time. On the one hand…. Samoas are awesome and someone should really put them in a dip. Right?! I didn’t do that. Because on the other hand– it’s sort of refreshing to get creative with the ingredients in this recipe and use components from the cookie to incorporate in the dip, instead of just being a lazy-bones and throwing in some cookies (but… you know… you could do that too if you wanted. Just sayin). This dip is built on a sweet cream cheese base (cream cheese + powdered sugar). Caramel filled Hershey Kisses bring the caramel and chocolate to the scene, while crushed shortbread cookies and toasted coconut complete the taste and texture that you have to have when you’re talking about Samoas. As always, my very favorite dippers are pretzels and apples (especially green apples for this one)!! But feel free to double up on the chocolate and coconut-y goodness and give your Samoas a dunk!

Hi, sounds yummy! Is it really 2 sticks of butter? Just seems like it would be an overpowering buttery taste. Can’t wait to make it though!! Reply
I made it last weekend. Used 1 stick of butter. I knew I didn’t want that buttery of flavor. The dip was a HUGE hit! So glad I found the recipe.
I cannot wait to try this! Samoas are my absolute favorite. Thank you for this (not sure if my backside will though! hah) Reply
