Easy Fruit Dip
This easy fruit dip made with cream cheese and marshmallow fluff is light, fluffy, and ready in minutes. It's the perfect addition to a fruit tray or snack board for parties and potlucks.
I was asked to bring a snack board to my daughter's after-prom party at a friend's house this month and I wanted to make something sweet but easy to nibble.
This easy fruit dip recipe came together in under 5 minutes and was just right for adding to a fruit platter that travels well for a potluck party.
I added little Swedish chocolate balls to finish out the dessert tray but you could add a wide variety of sweet and salty dippers that would pair so well with this sweet and fluffy dip.
Why This is the Best Recipe
- Only Two Ingredients: You can whip this up with pantry staples in minutes.
- Fast and Make-Ahead Friendly: Just beat, blend, and chill. No cooking, no stress, and you can prep it ahead of your party.
- Kid-Friendly but Grown-Ups Love It, Too: The sweet, tangy flavor pairs beautifully with fresh fruit or cookies and disappears fast!
Ingredients
This fruit dip keeps it sweet and simple with just two easy-to-find ingredients:
- Cream Cheese: I prefer to use a full-fat cream cheese. If you choose a lighter cream cheese it may affect the texture and be less creamy and smooth but it will still taste great.
- Marshmallow Fluff

How to Make the Dip
Add the softened cream cheese to a mixing bowl and beat it until smooth with a hand mixer on medium high speed.
Scrape the marshmallow fluff in and beat it into the cream cheese.
Spoon the fruit dip into a pretty serving bowl and chill it until you're ready to serve, at least 30 minutes but up to 5 days.
Make Ahead & Storage Tips
This dip is perfect for prepping in advance! Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Give it a quick stir before serving to fluff it back up.
Variations
- Vanilla Fruit Dip: Add a splash of vanilla extract
- Tropical Fruit Dip: Fold in crushed pineapple or orange zest
- Flavored Cream Cheese Dip: Swap in your favorite flavored cream cheese (like strawberry or honey pecan) to change up the base flavor of the dip
Serving Suggestions
I served this easy fruit dip on a fruit snack board with fresh strawberries, green grapes, cubed pineapple, and added our favorite Swedish chocolate balls with coconut as a sweet side.
You could serve this dip with apple slices, melon cubes or crispy dunkers like graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or pretzels for a sweet-and-salty combo.
