Ingredients
  

8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)

1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped (plus extra for garnish)

1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs (for garnish)

Assorted dippers (such as vanilla wafers, pretzels, or apple slices)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Base: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy. This ensures a silky texture for your dip.

    Sweeten it Up: Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Continue to mix until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is uniform in color.

      Incorporate Sour Cream: Gently fold in the sour cream using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; you want the dip to stay fluffy and creamy.

        Add Whipped Topping: Carefully fold in the whipped topping to introduce airiness to the dip. This step is key for achieving a light, cheesecake-like texture.

          Mix in the Strawberries: Gently stir in the chopped fresh strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture for that luscious fruity flavor.

            Chill to Perfection: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This chilling step allows the flavors to meld beautifully and the dip to firm up.

              Presentation and Serving: Once chilled, transfer the dip into a decorative serving bowl. For an enticing finish, sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on top for added texture, and garnish with extra chopped strawberries for a pop of color.

                Enjoy Together: Serve this delightful Sweet Strawberry Cheesecake Dip with your choice of assorted dippers. Enjoy the sweet, creamy indulgence that’s perfect for sharing!
