Where is the fruit dips recipe? In this post, I will share step-by-step instructions with photos for how to make the dip, as well as answering FAQs about the recipe and sharing a short video showing the recipe in motion.

How To Make Fruit Dip

beaten cream cheese in bowl

Beat one block of softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Why should you beat cream cheese by itself before adding other ingredients? Cream cheese comes in a block and even when it is softened it is still solid. Beating the cream cheese changes the texture and allows the other ingredients to easily mix into it without clumps.

marshmallow cream added to cream cheese

Next, add a jar marshmallow cream and mix until fully combined.

You can stop at this point and serve the fruit dips recipe as is if you desire.

add cinnamon and vanilla

Or you can take it a step further and add some additional flavor to the fruit dip by mixing in ground cinnamon and vanilla extract.

Surround the dip with dippable fruits such as blueberries, grapes, strawberries, watermelon, cantaloupe, and pineapple.
