Can I eat Funfetti cake mix raw in this dip?

Not without heat-treating. Raw cake mix contains flour, which can carry bacteria. To make this cottage cheese Dunkaroo dip safe, bake the mix at 350°F for 5 minutes or microwave for 1 minute before using.

How much protein is in this dip?

Because it’s made with cottage cheese and Greek yogurt, this dip is much higher in protein than traditional Funfetti cake batter dip. Each serving contains roughly 8–10 grams of protein, depending on the specific ingredients used.

Can I make this dip without whipped topping?

Yes. The whipped topping just makes it lighter and fluffier. Without it, the dip becomes thicker in texture, similar to a traditional cake batter protein dip.

How do I make the dip sweeter?

Add more sweetener such as honey, maple syrup, or a touch of powdered sugar. Flavored Greek yogurt can also be used to add a touch of extra sweetness.

Can I make this dip ahead of time?

Absolutely. Make it 2–3 days ahead and keep it refrigerated in an airtight container. Stir before serving.

What can I dip into this cottage cheese Dunkaroo Dip?

Great options for dipping include animal crackers, graham crackers, pretzels, fresh fruits such as strawberries or apple slices, and even crunchy cookies.
