Step 2: Create the Base
- In a mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese.
- Beat it with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. This ensures your dip won’t have lumps.
Step 3: Add Creaminess and Sweetness
- Mix in the Greek yogurt (or sour cream), powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Continue blending until fully combined and fluffy.
Step 4: Incorporate the Raspberries
- Gently fold in the raspberries. You can mash them lightly for a more uniform pink color, or leave small chunks for bursts of fruity flavor.
- Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more powdered sugar or honey if desired.
Step 5: Chill and Serve
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and for the dip to thicken slightly.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves, extra raspberries, or a light drizzle of honey.
Serving Ideas
- Fruit platter: Pair with apple slices, strawberries, melon, pineapple, or grapes.
- Cookies & crackers: Use shortbread cookies, graham crackers, or vanilla wafers for dipping.
- Breakfast treat: Spread it over pancakes, waffles, or toast.
- Party platter: Add it to a dessert board with pretzels, brownies, and marshmallows.
Storage Tips
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Best enjoyed within 2–3 days.
- Stir before serving, as natural separation may occur.
Conclusion
Raspberry Dip is the perfect blend of creamy and fruity, transforming simple ingredients into something indulgent yet easy to make. Whether you serve it at a party or enjoy it as a quick snack, it’s guaranteed to be a refreshing hit.
Would you like me to also create a savory version of Raspberry Dip (with chili, herbs, and cream cheese) alongside this sweet one, so you’d have two unique variations
