Dip Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 (7 oz) jar marshmallow creme
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: zest of 1 orange or lemon for extra flavor
Instructions
- Beat the Cream Cheese: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy to ensure a lump-free base for your dip.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Add the marshmallow creme, Greek yogurt or sour cream, vanilla extract, and optional citrus zest to the bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are fully combined and the mixture becomes fluffy.
- Chill the Dip: Transfer the mixture into a serving bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and the dip to firm up slightly.
- Serve: Serve chilled with a variety of fresh fruits such as strawberries, apple slices, grapes, pineapple, or melon for dipping.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute reduced-fat cream cheese and yogurt.
- Flavor variations can be made by adding almond extract, cinnamon, or a drizzle of honey.
