The 3 Simple Ingredients You’ll Need
Cool Whip, powdered sugar, and cream cheese are the trifecta of ingredients that come together to create this unbelievably tasty fruit dip.
The creamy texture of the Cool Whip, the sweetness of the powdered sugar, and the tanginess of the cream cheese combine perfectly to elevate the flavor of any fruit you dip into it.
For the Cool Whip, I prefer to use the Extra Creamy variety because it’s made with real cream and adds a nice richness to the dip.
Get ready to take your fruit platters to the next level with this simple yet delicious recipe.
Key to Success #1 – Soften the Cream Cheese
The key to achieving the perfect creamy texture for your fruit dip is to make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing it with the other ingredients.
This will ensure that the cream cheese blends smoothly with the Cool Whip and preserves the decadent consistency of the dip.
Simply allow the cream cheese to sit on the countertop at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before mixing the ingredients together.
If you’re pinched for time, place the unwrapped cream cheese on a microwave-safe plate and heat on the defrost setting for about 20 seconds.
Key to Success #2 – Extra Creamy Cool Whip for a Thicker Dip
For an even thicker and more luxurious fruit dip, consider using Extra Creamy Cool Whip in your recipe.
Thanks to the real cream in the Extra Creamy Cool Whip, this will add an extra level of richness and depth to the dip, making it even more irresistible.
With the perfect blend of softened cream cheese and extra creamy Cool Whip, your fruit dip will be decadently smooth and extra indulgent.
Key to Success #3 – Chill Before Serving
To take your fruit dip to the next level of deliciousness, be sure to chill it before serving.
Allowing the dip to rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour will not only help it set and firm up, but it will also give the flavors a chance to meld together for a more cohesive and delectable taste.
The cold temperature will also enhance the creaminess of the dip, making it even more satisfying to scoop up with your favorite fruits.
So, after mixing up the simple ingredients, pop your fruit dip in the fridge and get ready to experience a whole new level of flavor and enjoyment.

Now that you have mastered the art of making this 3-ingredient fruit dip, it’s time to explore all the different ways you can enjoy it.
One creative idea is to use the fruit dip as a spread on toast or bagels for a sweet and creamy breakfast treat.
You can also drizzle the dip over pancakes or waffles for a decadent twist on your morning meal.
Another fun way to enjoy this fruit dip is by layering it in a parfait with granola and fresh fruit for a delicious and satisfying snack.
The possibilities are endless, so don’t be afraid to get creative and experiment with different ways to enjoy your newfound favorite dip.
