Strawberry Cheesecake Dip
Strawberry Cheesecake Dip combines pureed fresh strawberries with cream cheese, vanilla Greek yogurt, and confectioners' sugar to create a creamy, slightly tangy dip with a fruity sweetness. Straining the puree removes seeds for a smooth texture. Served chilled, it pairs well with graham crackers, fresh strawberries, or other fruits, making it a flexible and refreshing dessert or snack option.
Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries plus more for serving, whole, fresh
- 6 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- 5.3 ounce Greek yogurt vanilla flavor
- 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
Instructions
- Puree the strawberries in a food processor. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve placed over a bowl to remove seeds (you should have about 1/2 cup puree.)
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk together the cream cheese, yogurt and sugar. Add the strawberry puree (1/2 cup) and beat until smooth and few chunks remain. Top with additional chopped strawberries, as desired. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Serve with graham crackers, strawberries, or other fruit.
Notes
- Store the dip refrigerated for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
- Double the ingredient quantities to make a larger batch for gatherings.
- Thawed frozen strawberries or strawberry jam can replace fresh puree if needed.
- Use plain Greek yogurt in place of vanilla if preferred.
- Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing to avoid lumps.
- Strain the strawberry puree using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove seeds and achieve smoothness.
