Total Time: 5 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff
Instructions
- Remove the cream cheese from the refrigerator and allow it to soften at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes. This will make it easier to mix and create a smooth texture.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, place the softened cream cheese. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to begin breaking down the cream cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar to the cream cheese, mixing continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Ensure the sugar is fully incorporated and the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Pour in the vanilla extract and continue mixing until the flavor is evenly distributed throughout the dip.
- Add the marshmallow fluff to the mixture, gently folding it in with a spatula to create a swirled, creamy consistency. Be careful not to overmix to maintain the fluff's texture.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and smooth the top with the back of a spoon.
- Chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
- Serve cold with fresh fruit slices, graham crackers, or your favorite dipping treats.
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Let your cream cheese sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before mixing. This ensures a smooth, lump-free texture that's pure creamy perfection.
- Mix Gradually: Add powdered sugar slowly while mixing to prevent clumping and achieve a light, fluffy consistency.
- Gentle Folding: When incorporating marshmallow fluff, use a gentle folding technique to maintain its airy texture and create beautiful swirls.
- Chill for Flavor: Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
- Serving Suggestions: Pair with a variety of dippers like fresh fruit slices, graham crackers, pretzels, or even use as a spread on bagels.
- Storage Tip: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, though we doubt it'll last that long!
