Instructions

Let’s get this delicious raspberry dip ready in no time:

Blend the Raspberries

If using fresh raspberries, give them a quick rinse. For frozen, thaw them first. Blend or mash the raspberries until smooth, leaving some small chunks for texture if you like.

Mix the Base

In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese until fluffy. Add sour cream or Greek yogurt, honey or powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until creamy and combined.

Combine & Chill

Fold the raspberry puree gently into the cream cheese mixture, stirring to swirl the colors without fully blending for a pretty marbled effect—or mix fully for uniform color.

Refrigerate

Cover and chill the dip for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld and the dip firm up a bit.

Serve & Enjoy

Serve with fresh fruit slices, graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or your favorite dippers.
