Fluffy Cheesecake and Marshmallow Fruit Dip

cheesecake dip

We have a little fruit stand close to my home that sells the most flavorful strawberries I’ve ever had. My little one would tell you that they are super juicy and that’s true, but even more importantly they have the perfect balance of sweet and tart. The vibrant red color doesn’t hurt either. We love to eat them just as they are… but sometimes it’s fun to make a healthy fruit into a decadent dessert. Just being real here.

When I was creating this masterpiece {once you taste it you will agree to this statement} I was focusing on easy and flavorful. Like so crazy easy that you can whip it up on a Friday night for the kids or make it the day before for a dinner party.

Ready? Set! Go!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups heavy whipping
  • 1 tub of cream cheese
  • 1 jar of marshmallow creme
  • 1 tablespoon of vanilla {Use less if yours is alcohol based and you are serving to kids. Alcohol based will have a strong alcohol taste}

Directions:

Whip the heavy whipping cream until it has a more solid than usual whipped cream consistency. {You will want the a stronger whip because it will break down slightly when you add the other ingredients… but don’t whip it too much or you will get butter!} Add cream cheese, marshmallow creme and vanilla to the whipped cream. Stir well. Chill for a few minutes to a few hours and enjoy! This is awesome on fresh fruit or squished in between homemade chocolate chip cookies to make a cookie sandwich. If you want to be really daring you could even eat it right off the spoon. I promise not to tell.
