Ingredients
Scale
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
1 cup strawberry topping or jam
1/4 cup fresh strawberries, diced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully combined and creamy.
In a separate, clean bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently swirl in the strawberry topping or jam. You want streaks of strawberry, not a fully pink mixture.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Chill for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Serve cold with graham crackers, pretzels, vanilla wafers, or fresh fruit slices.
Notes
For an extra layer of flavor, sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the top before serving.
If you are planning ahead, this dip holds well in the refrigerator for up to three days.
