Ingredients

  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened – for a smooth creamy texture be sure that the cream cheese is at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8-ounce) tub whipped topping or homemade Whipped Cream (about 3 cups)
  • 1 (7-ounce) jar Marshmallow Fluff – or use marshmallow creme which has a similar flavor and texture
  • strawberries, pineapple, grapes, or Pound Cake pieces, for serving

How to Make Fruit Dip

  1. COMBINE. In a large bowl, use a hand-held electric mixer or a stand mixer to beat 1½ cups powdered sugar, 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, and 1 teaspoon vanilla on low speed, until well mixed.
    • Fold in 1 (8-ounce) tub whipped topping and 1 (7-ounce) marshmallow fluff.
  2. CHILL + SERVE! Chill until ready to serve.

PRO TIP: Prevent Browning Fruit

Use a commercial product such as Fruit-Fresh. You can also brush lemon juice or ginger ale over the cut fruit or soak the fruit in 7UP or Sprite for 1 hour.

    Can you freeze this recipe?

    1. Lil'Luna Team says:

      Yes you can, but I wouldn’t really recommend. The texture might not be as smooth and creamy when it is thawed because of the cream cheese in there. So, technically you can, but the result when thawed might not be the same. I’d recommend storing in the fridge in an airtight container. It will last about 5 days.

  2. Claudia White says:

    Hi! Loving your recipes and the way you describe the recipes step by step and the great variations/add ins also!

    Been making this fruit dip for years. Work to family get togethers. Everyone loves this dip from little ones to grandparents. It is “finger licking good”.

    I just made this for the first time. I only made half bc after reading some of the reviews that said it was too sweet-I just wasn’t sure.
    Now I wish I’d have doubled it & I cud eat the extra with a spoon.
    I think it is GREAT & will be making it again.

    this tastes great. can it ne frozen?

    1. Lil'Luna Team says:

      I wouldn’t recommend freezing. The texture of those dairy products thawed might be a little strange. The dip will last 5-6 days in an air-tight container in the fridge.

    2. Elizabeth A Couch says:

      Hi I freeze it and it doesn’t hurt it
