Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla extract into a medium mixing bowl.
- Use an electric mixer on medium speed to beat the ingredients together until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Taste the dip and adjust sweetness if desired, though this recipe is balanced as written.
- Transfer the **fruit dip** to a serving bowl.
- Serve immediately with your favorite fresh fruit, or cover and chill for up to 3 days.
Notes
- For the best texture, make sure your cream cheese is fully softened before mixing.
- This dip pairs well with apples, strawberries, grapes, and pineapple chunks.
- If you want a thinner consistency for drizzling, mix in 1 tablespoon of milk or heavy cream until you reach your desired thickness.
- This recipe makes a great **caramel fruit dip alternative** without needing actual caramel.
