Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup Greek yogurt, plain
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, place the cream cheese and let it soften at room temperature for 5–10 minutes if it’s too firm to mix.
Using a handheld mixer or a whisk, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy to remove any lumps.
Add the Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and honey to the bowl with the cream cheese.
Mix everything together until smooth and fully combined. If using lemon zest, fold it in at this stage for a hint of brightness.
Taste and adjust sweetness by adding a little more honey or powdered sugar, if desired.
Transfer the vanilla fruit dip to a serving bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld.
Serve with an assortment of fresh fruits like strawberries, apple slices, pineapple chunks, or grapes. Enjoy!
