Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 3 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tsp Orange zest
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt. Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat them together until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the honey, vanilla extract, orange zest, and a pinch of salt to the bowl. Mix until fully combined and smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Give the dip a quick taste test and adjust sweetness or zestiness by adding more honey or orange zest, if desired.
Transfer the fruit dip to a serving bowl. For a touch of elegance, garnish with a sprinkle of extra orange zest on top.
Chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend and develop.
Serve with an assortment of fresh fruit, such as strawberries, apple slices, grapes, pineapple chunks, or kiwi rounds. Enjoy!
