Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 11 oz mandarin oranges (canned, drained)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup yogurt (vanilla or plain)
- assorted fresh fruit for dipping (optional)
Instructions
Place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl and let it soften at room temperature for about 10 minutes for easier blending.
Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar into the cream cheese, mixing well after each addition to ensure there are no lumps.
Add the drained mandarin oranges to the mixture and gently blend using a spoon or spatula. If a smoother texture is desired, use a blender or food processor to puree the oranges before adding.
Mix in the vanilla extract and yogurt until fully incorporated.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve with a platter of fresh fruit such as strawberries, apple slices, pineapple chunks, or grapes.
