Ingredients
Scale

- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon milk (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese in a medium bowl.
- Use an electric mixer or a sturdy whisk to beat the cream cheese until it is smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar to the cream cheese, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.
- Beat in the vanilla extract until the dip is uniform in flavor and texture.
- If the dip seems too thick for your liking, mix in the milk one teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- Serve immediately with your favorite fresh fruit platter.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, substitute the powdered sugar with 1/3 cup of packed light brown sugar for a caramel-like taste.
- This simple fruit dip pairs well with strawberries, grapes, apple slices, pineapple chunks, and melon.
- Chill the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
