Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
- 6 oz (170 g) white chocolate chips
- 1 cup (125 g) fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup (30 g) powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy cream or whipping cream
- 1 tsp lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
- Soften the cream cheese by leaving it out of the fridge for about 30 minutes until soft but not melted.
- Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring each time until smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler. Let cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Slowly pour the melted white chocolate into the cream cheese mixture while mixing on low speed until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes with a mixer or 5 minutes by hand.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese and white chocolate mixture using a spatula to keep it airy.
- Carefully fold in the fresh raspberries and lemon zest (if using), being careful not to crush the berries.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and texture to firm up.
- Serve chilled with graham crackers, fresh fruit, or your favorite dippers. Keep refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Notes
Melt white chocolate slowly at low power to avoid seizing. Whip cream to soft peaks only. Fold raspberries in gently to avoid crushing and discoloring the dip. Chill at least 1 hour before serving. If too soft after chilling, freeze for 10 minutes to firm up. Can substitute coconut cream and dairy-free cream cheese for vegan version.
