Fruit dip with cream cheese and powdered sugar

Powdered sugar fruit dip is completely and utterly addicting!

It’s light, fluffy, and perfect for dipping any fruit, making it a fun addition to a festive spread.

The dip is made with just 4 ingredients, and they’re pantry staples you likely always have in your kitchen.

Plus, it’s ready in 10 minutes. Does it get any better than this?

It’s one of those recipes you can whip up at a moment’s notice for a quick dessert or to entertain impromptu guests.

So grab a bowl and a whisk, and let’s get going!

As mentioned, you need just 4 ingredients to make this delicious powdered sugar fruit dip. Please see the recipe card below for exact measurements.

• Cream cheese: I recommend brick-style full-fat cream cheese for the best taste and texture. However, fat-reduced or cream cheese from a tub will work, too.
• Powdered sugar: Sift the powdered sugar to remove any lumps and guarantee a smooth consistency.
• Heavy cream: Make sure your cream is very cold to whip up properly. I like to pop my mixing bowl and beaters in the fridge so they are also cold.
• Vanilla: Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.

By the way, you can use the same ingredients to make mini no-bake cheesecakes. They are great to serve with fruit dip if you’re hosting.

And if you crave a savory dip, try our chili cream cheese dip or garlic cheese spread.

My fruit dip with powdered sugar couldn’t be easier! You’ll be dipping into this delicious treat in 4 simple steps. Let’s walk through it:

1. Whip Cream Cheese

Place the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to whip on high for about 1 minute, until combined. Then, set aside.

2. Beat heavy cream

Next, pour the cold heavy cream into another medium bowl. Using the hand mixer again, whip on high speed until stiff peaks begin to form, around for 4 to 6 minutes.

3. Fold together

Transfer the whipped cream into the same bowl as the cream cheese mixture. Use a spatula to gently fold them together until combined. Be careful not to overmix, or the whipped cream will deflate and lose its airiness.

4. Serve

Serve immediately with your favorite fruit and other dippers. Enjoy!

• Try a different extract: Instead of vanilla, try another extract such as lemon, orange, or almond.
• Make it berry: Blend up your favorite freeze-dried berry (such as strawberry, raspberry, or blueberry) and add about 1 tablespoon of the powder.
• Chocolate version: Stir in about 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder to make chocolate cream cheese fruit dip.
• Add sprinkles: Incorporate 1 tablespoon of colorful sprinkles for a cute funfetti twist.

I love to assemble a platter of sliced fruits and colorful berries, but you are welcome to go jazzy with your dippers. The options are endless!

We love to dip just about anything with this sweet fruit dip with cream cheese. Here are a few recommendations:

• Berries like strawberries and blueberries

• Sliced apples
• Sliced peaches
• Pineapple Spears
• Sliced pears

Or go all out and serve it alongside these chocolate-stuffed strawberries for an epic dessert!

Cream cheese powdered sugar dip also doubles as an excellent sweet breakfast spread for your morning toast, pancakes, crepes, waffles, and French toast.

On occasion, I even use it as icing or filling for cinnamon rolls, blueberry muffins, and lemon banana bread.

How to store fruit dip with cream cheese and powdered sugar

This cream cheese and powdered sugar fruit dip will last up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

Be sure to store it in an airtight container so it doesn’t take on funky smells from the fridge.

When ready to eat, give it a quick stir and then serve with your favorite fresh fruit.

Can you freeze powdered sugar fruit dip?

No, I advise against freezing fruit dip with cream cheese. Cream cheese changes its texture after freezing and thawing, and the fruit dip won’t have the same fluffy texture.
