Ingredients
Scale
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup heavy cream
Instructions
Place the softened cream cheese in a medium mixing bowl.
Beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until it is smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the bowl. Mix on low speed until just combined.
Slowly pour in the heavy cream while mixing on medium speed. Beat until the dip is light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Serve immediately with your favorite fresh fruit, or cover and chill for up to 2 days.
Notes
For a slightly tangier dip, substitute 2 tablespoons of the heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of sour cream.
This dip tastes best when served cold. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving for the best texture.
Pair this dip with strawberries, grapes, pineapple chunks, apple slices, and melon pieces for a great fruit platter.
