Scale
Main Dairy Ingredients:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) milk
Sweeteners and Flavoring:
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Serving Accompaniments:
- Assorted fruits for dipping (strawberries, apple slices, grapes)
Instructions
- Unwrap cream cheese and allow it to soften at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes, ensuring a smooth, spreadable consistency.
- Place softened cream cheese into a medium mixing bowl, using an electric mixer to whip until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually incorporate powdered sugar into the cream cheese, mixing on low speed to prevent sugar from dispersing.
- Gently fold in marshmallow crème, blending until completely integrated and creating a silky, uniform texture.
- Pour vanilla extract and stir thoroughly to distribute the aromatic flavor throughout the dip.
- Cover the prepared dip with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and dip to firm up.
- Before serving, give the dip a quick stir to restore its creamy consistency.
- Arrange fresh fruit like strawberries, apple slices, or banana chunks around the dip for an elegant presentation.
- Store any remaining dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, ensuring maximum freshness.
Notes
- Chill the cream cheese at room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free texture.
- Try different fruit combinations like strawberries, blueberries, or a tropical mix to keep the dip exciting and versatile.
- For a lighter version, substitute Greek yogurt for half the cream cheese to reduce calories while maintaining a creamy consistency.
- Sprinkle some chopped nuts or granola on top just before serving to add a delightful crunch and extra layer of flavor.
