Makes about 2 cups
Prep 5 minutes
Fruit may be nature’s candy, but a dollop of something sweet can make a platter of it even more appealing. Here, you’ll whip cream cheese and marshmallow creme until fluffy, then flavor it with a touch of vanilla extract. A scoop of frozen orange juice concentrate is an unexpected addition that makes this dip simply irresistible.
Serve the tangy dip as your next no-cook, make-ahead dessert, or include it as an unexpected treat in an after-school snack spread. Then, prepare to watch the fruit disappear.
