Strawberry Cheesecake Dip
Strawberry cheesecake dip is sweet and creamy fruit based dip. This no bake appetizer is perfect for movie night. Made with cool whip, cream cheese, and fresh strawberries.
Dip fruit, Nilla wafers, or graham crackers into this sweet dip. The idea is a deconstructed cheesecake base to make a strawberry dip for serving. Great for parties, game day, and even Valentine’s Day.
Gluten Free & Dairy Free
Cool whip is gluten free and so is cream cheese. That makes this recipe easily gluten free. As for dairy free a dairy free cream cheese and a dairy free coco whip can be used in place of the others.
Firstly, place whipped topping into a plastic bowl. Whip with a hand mixer until it’s creamy. Now it’s time to add the cream cheese.
Mix together the cool whip and cream cheese until creamy. Make sure the cream cheese and cool whip is well incorporated. Setting them out for 10 minutes before mixing is helpful.
Add in a drop of light pink food gel. This is completely optional and just adds a valentine’s flare to the dip.
Dice strawberries and place into the cool whip mixture. Mix well with the hand blender to incorporate the strawberries. Plate into a serving bowl, top with a fresh strawberry, and strawberry bits.
Make Ahead
Strawberry cheesecake dip is best made no more than one day before serving. The strawberries inside the dip get too soft over time. Make and keep cold until ready to serve.
Variations
Strawberry dip is easily changed out for blueberries, raspberries, and even blackberries. Dip with Nilla wafers, graham crackers, ritz crackers, and even fruit.
