Ingredients
Scale
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
1 cup fresh strawberries, finely diced
1/4 cup strawberry topping or preserves (optional, for swirl)
Instructions
Place the softened cream cheese, sifted powdered sugar, and vanilla extract into a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
In a separate, clean bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. This adds the fluffy texture you want in a great dessert dip.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the finely diced fresh strawberries. If you want a more pronounced swirl, reserve half the strawberries and gently swirl in the strawberry topping now.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Chill for at least 10 minutes before serving, though it is ready immediately if you are in a rush.
Serve this sweet cream cheese dip with graham crackers, pretzels, vanilla wafers, or fresh fruit like apple slices and berries.
Notes
For an extra bright flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture.
If you want a thicker dip, reduce the heavy whipping cream slightly or add 2 ounces of softened cream cheese.
This dip is fantastic for potlucks and game days; make it ahead and keep it chilled until serving time.
