This easy fruit dip is sweet, tangy, and only uses two main ingredients. Add your favorite extract or fruit juice to complement any flavor! Serve with your favorite fresh fruit or suggested list of other dippable snacks.
8ounces(225g) block cream cheese1softened to room temperature
7ounces(198g) marshmallow creme
OPTIONAL: ¼ teaspoon desired extract2
Instructions
Add the cream cheese and the marshmallow creme to a medium size bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Using a handheld mixer or the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese and marshmallow together on medium-high speed until smooth.
Turn off the mixer, add extract, if using, and beat again on low speed. Allow dip to chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving with fruit. Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 1 week. Dip may be frozen3 up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
Notes
Cream cheese: use full fat or lower fat cream cheese. Consider using strawberry cream cheese or other fruit-flavored cream cheese to make your own fun version.
Extract: you can omit flavored extract completely, though I recommend a but just for a little something extra. Consider vanilla extract or even a citrus like orange extract or lemon extract. My favorite is almond extract because its flavor lends well to and complements most fruits.
Freezing: you may have to re-whip this fruit dip after being frozen in order to keep it nice and fluffy.
