Scale
Dip
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup whipped topping or freshly whipped cream
Instructions
- Beat the cream cheese: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until it becomes smooth and creamy, creating the base for the dip.
- Add sweeteners and flavorings: Mix in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until all ingredients are fully combined and the mixture is smooth.
- Incorporate raspberries: Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, lightly mashing some to release their juices while keeping small pieces intact for texture.
- Fold in whipped topping: Carefully fold the whipped topping or freshly whipped cream into the mixture until the dip is light and fluffy.
- Chill the dip: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend and the dip to firm up slightly before serving.
Notes
- For a smoother texture, blend the raspberries first and strain out the seeds before adding to the dip.
- Frozen raspberries, thawed and drained, can be used as a substitute for fresh raspberries.
- Serve this dip with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, pretzels, or fresh fruit for a delightful treat.
