This beautiful rainbow unicorn dip might be the most magical thing I’ve ever made.
Unicorns are having a moment.
Magical, unicorn-themed food has been completely taking over Pinterest recently, from unicorn hot chocolate, to unicorn bark, to unicorn macarons and unicorn poop cookies (ummm…).
As someone who grew up with Lisa Frank and My Little Pony (please say you are not too young to remember these things!), the recent new profusion of rainbow on my Instagram page and on the internet in general is making me ridiculously happy right now.
Of course I had to put my own spin on the unicorn dessert trend, and since cheesecake is one of my all-time favorite desserts, it was only natural I’d want to incorporate it into this fairytale-esque rainbow cheesecake dip. I brought the dip to a Super Bowl party last night and served it with graham crackers. So basically, it was a bunch of guys watching football while eating unicorn dip from a neon-pink serving bowl.
No one can resist the charms of this magical rainbow dessert!
An easy, kid-friendly recipe!
And now, if unicorn dip recipes start to take over your instagram and pinterest feeds, you know who to blame.
Sorry not sorry.
This easy-to-make rainbow dip was inspired by my Healthy Cheesecake Recipe.
You whip up the cheesecake batter, portion it into four dishes, then swirl all of your colors together to make one big and beautiful bowl of unicorn cheesecake dip. The entire process takes about 10 minutes from start to finish, and there is NO baking required.
So how did I come up with the idea for Unicorn Dip in the first place?
My initial idea was actually for something totally different: unicorn banana bread! That idea did not work out too well, as the banana bread swallowed up any trace of rainbow filling during the baking process. But of course I had to sample some of the filling as I worked.
Some recipes taste good but look ugly; some recipes look good but taste just okay – This is one recipe that looks beautiful and tastes delicious too!

How To Make Unicorn Dip
How To Make Your Own Rainbow Unicorn Dip
Ingredients
- 12 oz cream cheese, such as TJs vegan
- 1 cup plain yogurt, such as coconutmilk yogurt
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup unrefined sugar, or xylitol for sugar-free
- 1 additional tbsp sugar, or pinch uncut stevia
- food coloring OR a pinch turmeric, acai powder, spirulina, and blue spirulina
Instructions
Bring cream cheese to room temperature. Blend all ingredients except the colors until smooth. Although a blender, food processor, or hand blender will yield smoothest results, you can technically stir by hand if you must. Divide among four little dishes and stir a different coloring into each dish. (Be very light-handed if using turmeric and spirulina, as these flavors are strong and a little goes a long way.) Drop spoonfuls of each color into a serving bowl, alternating colors. Then swirl colors together with a spoon. Leftovers can be covered and refrigerated up to three days.
