Equipment
- Medium Mixing Bowl
- Hand mixer or sturdy spatula

Ingredients
- 8 oz full-fat cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 7 oz marshmallow fluff marshmallow creme
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 lb fresh strawberries whole with green tops
- 2 large green apples crisp, such as Granny Smith
- 1 cluster purple grapes dark purple variety
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese in a medium mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer or sturdy spatula, beat until completely smooth and free of lumps.
- Add the marshmallow fluff to the bowl. Mix on low speed or stir vigorously until fully combined and the mixture is fluffy and uniform. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Pour in the vanilla extract and lemon juice. Mix just until incorporated—do not overmix.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Serve immediately with prepared fresh fruit, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
Storage: Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes and stir before serving again.
Reheating: Not applicable; serve chilled or at room temperature.
Best Tips: Use full-fat block cream cheese for the richest texture. Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps. Dry fruit thoroughly to prevent the dip from thinning.
Variations: Fold in 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder for a chocolate version, or add 1 teaspoon of orange zest for a citrusy twist. Swirl in 2 tablespoons of strawberry preserves for a fruity ribbon.
