Ingredients
Scale
For The Brown Sugar Cream Cheese Fruit Dip:
- 1 (8-ounce) block cream cheese, slightly softened at room temperature for 15–20 minutes
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (lightly packed)
- 2 Tablespoons sugar (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch (less than 1/8 teaspoon) salt
Optional Mix-Ins Or Garnishes:
- Toffee bits (like Heath Bits’O’Brickle), caramel sauce, or mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, brown sugar, sugar, vanilla, and salt.
- Use a hand mixer on low speed, then increase to medium speed to beat and combine the ingredients. Beat at least 2-3 minutes, or until all sugar crystals are dissolved. (It shouldn’t look gritty or feel gritty if you rubbed it between your fingers.)
- Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately with fresh fruit on a fruit tray. Or, you can store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3-4 days. (I recommend using a spoon or fork to give it a quick mix before serving if you make it in advance.)
- If desired, garnish the dip with a sprinkle of toffee bits, a drizzle of caramel sauce, or a few mini chocolate chips right before serving.
Notes
- I recommend full-fat cream cheese here for the best flavor and texture. (Lite or low-fat cream cheese can be watery and clumpy.)
