Ingredients

For the Dip

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup confectioner’s sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup strawberry jam

Instructions

  1. Combine Cream Cheese Mixture: In a bowl, add the softened cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the mixture until it is smooth, fully combined, and creamy. Set this mixture aside.
  2. Whip the Heavy Cream: In a separate clean bowl, pour the heavy cream. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the cream for about 2 to 3 minutes until it forms medium peaks.
  3. Fold Whipped Cream Into Mixture: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula. Carefully incorporate the whipped cream to maintain its light texture, mixing until fully combined.
  4. Add Strawberry Jam Swirl: Spread the cheesecake dip evenly into a wide, shallow serving bowl. Spoon the strawberry jam on top and use a knife to swirl the jam gently throughout the dip for a marbled effect.
  5. Serve or Chill: Serve the dip immediately paired with graham crackers, or cover and refrigerate it until ready to serve. The dip tastes best chilled.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for a smooth, lump-free dip.
  • For best results, chill the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving if not serving immediately.
  • Substitute strawberry jam with any berry jam or preserves to vary the flavor.
  • This dip pairs excellently with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or fresh fruit slices.
  • Use heavy cream with at least 36% fat content for proper whipping consistency.
