Ingredients
Scale
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
1 cup strawberry topping or preserves
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs (for topping)
Instructions
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Beat until fully combined and smooth.
In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently swirl in the strawberry topping or preserves, leaving some streaks for visual appeal.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
Sprinkle the top evenly with graham cracker crumbs.
Serve immediately with dippers, or chill for 30 minutes for a firmer texture.
Notes
Serve this dip with graham crackers, pretzels, vanilla wafers, or fresh strawberries for dipping.
If you are preparing this ahead of time, wait to add the graham cracker topping until just before serving to keep it crisp.
For a richer flavor, consider using a high-quality strawberry preserve. This recipe is a great alternative to complicated meal planning when you need a fast dessert.
