Christmas Dip Tips
- This recipe calls for 4 ounces of cool whip; this equals 1 1/2 cups.
- Use freshly whipped cream instead of the cool whip isn’t your thing. You will need 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream that is whipped to the stiff peaks stage. This should yield you about 1 1/2 cups, then use it in the recipe like you would the cool whip.
- Many people have asked about the decorative sprinkles I used in the pictures. I found them at Bed Bath and Beyond, but I’m pretty sure they don’t sell them anymore. However, THESE are very similar and just as cute!
