this Recipe

So here’s the thing—I never meant to fall in love with a dip. But it happened.

The first time I had this Marshmallow Cream Cheese Fruit Dip, I wasn’t even planning to eat dessert. (Wild, I know.) It was one of those bring-a-dish potluck nights with our Home Group, and this unassuming little bowl of white fluff was just sitting on the end of the table, looking… harmless.

Until someone handed me a strawberry, dipped it in, and said, “You have to try this.” You know what? They were right. One bite turned into five. Then I hovered near that dip like a fruit ninja until the bowl was literally licked clean.

Cut to a few weeks later: I made a double batch for my husband’s going-away party before boot camp. I thought, “Finally, leftovers!” Ha. Not a chance. Everyone devoured it. I’m pretty sure someone asked for a spoon and abandoned the fruit completely.

This dip? It’s that good. It’s not just a recipe—it’s a little sweet moment of joy that sneaks up on you.

Why You’ll Love This Marshmallow Cream Cheese Fruit Dip Recipe?

Let’s start with the obvious: it’s only two ingredients. Yep, just two. No baking, no stovetop, no last-minute grocery runs. And yet, it tastes like something you’d find at a fancy baby shower or a Pinterest-perfect brunch.

What I love most is that it’s creamy without being too rich, sweet but not sickly. And it plays really well with others—grapes, strawberries, apples, graham crackers, cookies… or honestly, a spoon. No shame.

It’s the kind of treat you whip up on a whim but end up craving weekly. (Ask me how I know.)

Ingredient Notes:

Let’s talk about the super short shopping list:

• Cream Cheese (8 oz): Go full-fat. This isn’t the moment to save calories—it gives that thick, smooth base that makes this dip sing.

• Marshmallow Fluff (15 oz jar): Also known as marshmallow crème. This is where the sweetness and cloud-like texture come from.

Optional but HIGHLY recommended:

• Fresh Fruit: Strawberries are a classic, but honestly? Grapes, apples, pineapples, and even orange slices work.

• Graham Cracker Sticks: They make it feel fancy. And crunchy. And also like you made more of an effort than you did.

How To Make Marshmallow Cream Cheese Fruit Dip?

Okay, ready for how laughably simple this is?

Step 1: Let the cream cheese soften.
If you’ve got time, let it sit out for about 30 minutes. If not, microwave it in short bursts until it’s soft enough to mix.

Step 2: Mix it up.
Throw the cream cheese and marshmallow fluff into a bowl. Grab your hand mixer (or a strong arm and a whisk if you’re feeling ambitious) and blend until smooth and fluffy.

Step 3: Serve it like a hero.
Transfer to a pretty bowl or serve it straight from the mixing bowl—I’ve done both, depending on the crowd. Surround it with fruit and graham cracker sticks… or just hand out spoons.

That’s it. You’re officially the host everyone will be talking about.

Storage Options:

If by some miracle you have leftovers (seriously, teach me your ways), you can store this dip in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days.

Heads up: it’ll firm up a bit when cold. Just give it a quick stir to fluff it up again before serving.

Variations and Substitutions:

Feeling adventurous? Here are a few fun ways to make it your own:

• Add vanilla or almond extract for a hint of something extra.

• Fold in whipped topping for a lighter, fluffier texture.

• Mix in crushed pineapple or a swirl of strawberry jam for fruity vibes.

• Try flavored cream cheese like strawberry or honey pecan. Totally changes the game.

Honestly, this dip is super forgiving. Go ahead—get a little weird with it.

What to Serve with Marshmallow Cream Cheese Fruit Dip?

You can’t go wrong with:

• Strawberries, grapes, apples, pineapple, banana slices

• Graham crackers, Nilla wafers, animal crackers

• Pretzels (for that sweet + salty combo)

• Shortbread cookies

• Or my personal favorite: a spoon straight from the bowl.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I make this dip ahead of time?
Totally. Make it the night before and stash it in the fridge. Just stir it before serving.

Can I freeze it?
Wouldn’t recommend it. The texture gets weird. Trust me—it’s best fresh or refrigerated.

Can I double or triple the recipe?
Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. And honestly, you probably should. It goes fast.
