Protein Dunkaroo Dip Recipe

One nostalgic childhood snack I ate was the classic Dunkaroo dip, a packaged snack kit with frosting in one compartment and sweet crackers in the other. It was so convenient, and I remember dunking the crackers into the frosting to enjoy the best of both worlds in one bite. Now, imagine a healthier, high-protein version of this nostalgic treat.

Dunkaroo Dip Origin

The original Dunkaroo Dip was made by Betty Crocker in 1990. The brand used kangaroo crackers to market as a fun and playful snack to kids. Unfortunately, Dunkaroo Dip was discontinued in the U.S. in 2012 but did make a comeback in 2020.

Protein Dunkaroo Dip Recipe Ingredients

• 2 tbsp sugar-free vanilla pudding mix
• 1–2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
• Rainbow sprinkles (plus extra for topping)

You can meal-prep this snack in a container with different compartments. Store the dip in a section and the crackers in a different section.

Protein Dunkaroo Tips

• Choose the right protein powder: Avoid chalky or gritty powders. Use one with a smooth texture and good flavor for the best results.
• Adjust consistency as needed: If the dip becomes too thick, stir in a splash of milk to thin it out.
• Add flavor boosts: A dash of cinnamon or a few drops of almond extract can elevate the taste.
• Switch up your dippers: This dip pairs well with fruit, graham crackers, animal crackers, or other snacks of your choice.
