Ingredients
Scale
- 7.5 oz (212 g) strawberry cream cheese, softened
- 7.5 oz (212 g) marshmallow fluff
- ½ cup (120 ml) sour cream
- 1 tsp honey
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsps lemon zest
- 4–5 drops red food coloring (optional)
Instructions
- Preparation: Allow cream cheese to soften at room temperature for one hour, creating a spreadable consistency.
- Mixing: In a medium bowl, whisk together cream cheese, sour cream, honey, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and optional food coloring until smooth and uniform, eliminating any lumps using an electric mixer.
- Fluffing: Gently fold marshmallow fluff into the mixture, maintaining its light texture and preventing deflation.
- Storing: Transfer the dip to a sealed container, minimizing air exposure to preserve freshness, and refrigerate for one hour to allow flavors to meld and texture to set.
- Serving: Present the chilled dip in a decorative bowl alongside an array of fresh seasonal fruits, crisp pretzels, or delicate cookies for an inviting and delectable dipping experience.
Notes
- Soften Cream Cheese Strategically: Allow cream cheese to reach room temperature naturally for precise texture and smooth blending, preventing lumpy inconsistencies.
- Mix Ingredients Methodically: Whip components thoroughly using electric mixer or whisk to guarantee a uniform, silky consistency without visible cream cheese chunks.
- Preserve Dip’s Freshness: Store in airtight container and refrigerate for maximum 48 hours, minimizing air exposure to maintain optimal flavor and prevent potential spoilage.
- Serve with Complementary Pairings: Select vibrant, fresh fruits, crunchy pretzels, or delicate cookies that enhance the dip’s creamy texture and provide delightful contrasting textures.
