Notes about the Ingredients

Cream cheese is the foundation for your Cream Cheese Fruit Dip. Richness is best achieved with full-fat cream cheese.

Heavy cream—Cold heavy cream will thin down the cream cheese somewhat, making it the right dipping consistency.

Powdered sugar—This provides a lot of sweet flavor. If you use granulated sugar instead of powdered sugar, the dip will have a gritty texture.

Vanilla extract- This adds a tinge of vanilla to the dip, which complements the cream-cheesy flavor.

Substitutions and Add-ons

Instead of cream cheese, sour cream, Greek yogurt, or marshmallow fluff might be used as the foundation for your Cream Cheese Fruit Dip.

Add cool whip- If you prefer a fluffier, lighter dip, combine cool whip with marshmallow fluff for a cloud-like texture.
Brown sugar may be substituted, but due to its graininess, you’ll need to ground it finer or melt it into a simple syrup. However, the molasses flavor is a welcome complement.
To add flavor to your fruit dip, slice up maraschino cherries, squeeze in some orange juice, or zest a lemon.
How to Make Fruit Dip with Cream Cheese
Cream the cream cheese until smooth. Add the whipped cream cheese to a medium mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer or whisk until smooth.

Combine the remaining ingredients. Add the cool heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar to the mixture and beat on low speed until smooth. Serve chilled with a fruit of your choice.

Pro Tip: To make extra smooth cream cheese, I like to use my portable electric mixer. It works well and is much faster than using a hand whisk.

Recipe Suggestions
Use room temperature cream cheese; the softer the cream cheese, the simpler it is to blend. If it’s too cold, your fruit dip will become lumpy, and no one likes that, right?!
When adding the remaining ingredients to the cream cheese, be careful to mix on low speed. Otherwise, powdered sugar will fly all over the place.
Slowly increase the speed as the fruit dip begins to come together. Continue until you have a beautiful smooth consistency.
Use cold heavy cream because it combines faster and blends better into the whipped cream cheese.
