Frequently Asked Questions – FAQ

What can I use to dip into this sweet snack?

Some of the favorite dippers for this easy dessert dip include Teddy Grahams, vanilla wafers, graham crackers, or animal crackers would be the most delicious pairing. If you want to be on the healthier side, you could try apple slices, strawberries, or other fresh fruit.

How do I Store Leftovers?

You can either keep the high-protein Dunkaroo Dip in the same bowl you served it in and cover it with plastic wrap or place your leftover dip in an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 4 days. If you want to freeze it, make a batch ahead of time and freeze individual portions in small containers for easy and convenient snacking. I would recommend adding the sprinkles right before you are serving this dip to keep the colors from bleeding into your dip.
