Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Greek yogurt, plain
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp Lime zest
- 2 tbsp Fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp Orange liqueur (optional)
- 1 cup Whipped cream
- 2 cups Angel food cake, cubed
- 2 cups Strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks, fresh or canned
- 2 pcs Kiwi, peeled and cut into chunks
- 12 pcs Bamboo skewers
- 0.5 cup Graham crackers, crushed (optional garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy using a hand or stand mixer.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, Greek yogurt, lime zest, lime juice, and orange liqueur (if using) to the cream cheese. Beat until well combined and smooth.
Gently fold in the whipped cream using a spatula until the dip is light and fluffy. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
While the dip chills, prepare the fruit kebabs by threading a cube of angel food cake, a strawberry half, a pineapple chunk, and a piece of kiwi onto each bamboo skewer. Repeat until the skewer is full, leaving enough room at the bottom to hold.
Repeat the skewering process for the remaining fruit and cake chunks, creating 12 kebabs in total.
Spread the margarita dip into a serving bowl and, if desired, sprinkle crushed graham crackers around the edges for garnish.
Serve the chilled Margarita Dip alongside the Strawberry Shortcake Fruit Kebabs. Dip the kebabs into the flavorful dip and enjoy!
