- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, very cold
- 1 cup powdered sugar

- ½ teaspoon peppermint extract (adjust to taste)
- Green food coloring, optional
- ¾ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract. Mix until well combined and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and airy.
- Add green food coloring if using, and mix just until blended.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving, or serve immediately.

- Adjust peppermint extract to taste for stronger or milder flavor.
- Serve as dip, cookie sandwich filling, or in layered dessert cups.
- Stir leftovers before serving to refresh the texture.
