Brown Sugar Cinnamon Fruit Dip-makes eating fruit fun!
So as we continue on with Apple week, I had to make something my picky child would eat. Remembering how I was at her age, I cut her a little slack on forcing her to eat all the fruits and veggies that everyone else in the house is willing to eat. I’m hopeful, that like me, she will grow out of it, at least partially.
When it comes to dips, vegetables usually get all the fun. Carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, they’re sturdy. They can take the dunk into a thick dip and not break off, bend-dropping all the dip back into the bowl, Big enough to hold onto without your fingertips getting a little dipped too.
Fruits are delicate and sweet. Hard to dip. And lets face it, Fruit really doesn’t need dip. Fresh, full of flavor, sweet or tart. Juicy. Apples can stand alone, and they do it well. But apples also represent all fruit in the dipping world. They’re strong, they’re holdable and they go well with everything. Sweet or savory, hot or cold dips, Apples can take it and hold their own.

September 18, 2012 at 12:37 pmThat looks really yummy. I make a similar one with sour cream instead of the cream cheese. But I love how thick yours is. Fortunately, my girls love love love fruit, but I’ve always had to force myself to eat it, so fruit dips are always helpful for me!

June 3, 2013 at 4:58 pmHave you tried this? 8 oz cream cheese (at room temp) and 1 jar marshmallow cream. Use a mixer to blend well and I add a few drops of red food coloring to make it pretty in pink 🙂 It is so yummy

This sounds delicious!
In the recipe you mentions vanilla. Is it vanilla extract or vanilla sugar?
Joan Hayes says
September 8, 2014 at 9:53 pmIt’s vanilla extract and the dip is delicious, goes well with any apple type but my favorite is the Golden delicious!
