Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Base
- In a mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese.
- Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy (about 1–2 minutes).
2. Add Sweeteners and Flavoring
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until fully incorporated.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and mix well.
3. Adjust the Consistency
- Add the milk a little at a time, stirring until the dip reaches your desired consistency.
- If you prefer a thicker dip, use less milk; for a thinner dip, add a bit more.
4. Chill (Optional)
- For the best flavor and texture, refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Serving Suggestions

- Strawberries

- Grapes
- Pineapple chunks
- Kiwi slices
- Banana slices
- Add a drizzle of honey or sprinkle of cinnamon on top for extra flair.
