- Cream cheese. Strawberry cream cheese spread adds a subtle, light strawberry flavor.

🫐Substitutions or Variations
- Cream cheese. Use any flavor of cream cheese, like blueberry or mixed berry, or a plain block of cream cheese. If you're using plain cream cheese, consider mixing in 2-3 tablespoons of powdered sugar.
- Marshmallow creme. Make it extra fluffy and mix in up to a 7 oz. container of marshmallow fluff.
- Flavor extracts. Mix in a little vanilla extract or a tiny drop of almond extract.
- Jam. Stir in a swirl of strawberry jam for even more berry flavor.
- Food coloring. If you prefer a pinker hue, add a touch of pink or red food coloring.

❓FAQs
Yes! It keeps well in the fridge for up to 3–4 days.
Yes. Whip 1 ½ cups heavy cream with ⅓ cup powdered sugar to stiff peaks. Gently fold it into the whipped cream cheese until combined. Be sure to use softened cream cheese for the smoothest, creamiest texture.
Yes. Add a spoonful of strawberry jam for sweet, fruity flavor. Or, if you prefer it without strawberry flavor, consider mixing in a couple of tablespoons of powdered sugar since the strawberry cream cheese is sweeter than plain cream cheese.
This delicious dip goes well with fresh strawberries, pineapple chunks, orange slices, grapes, apple slices, vanilla wafers, graham crackers, or pretzels.
