Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Festive Decorations
- Orange and purple sprinkles, to taste
- Colored frosting or food coloring (optional, for extra Halloween colors)
Instructions
- Soften and Blend Cream Cheese: Start by letting the cream cheese reach room temperature for easy blending. Use a hand or stand mixer to beat the cream cheese until it’s smooth and fluffy, creating a luscious base.
- Add Yogurt and Vanilla: Mix in the vanilla Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. This step lightens up the texture and adds a gentle tang, making the dip perfectly balanced.
- Sweeten the Dip: Gradually add powdered sugar to the bowl and continue mixing until fully incorporated. This will smooth out the dip and provide just the right amount of sweetness.
- Add Color and Sprinkles: If using food coloring or frosting for more vibrant Halloween colors, gently fold it into the dip now. Then sprinkle in the orange and purple sprinkles for that festive touch and a little crunch.
- Chill and Serve: Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Before serving, give it a quick stir and add more sprinkles on top for extra spook appeal.
Notes
- Softening the cream cheese before mixing ensures a smooth, lump-free dip.
- Use fresh yogurt and quality vanilla extract to elevate the flavor.
- Fold sprinkles gently to avoid color bleed and maintain their texture.
- Refrigerate the dip before serving to help it set and develop richer flavors.
- Pair with sturdy dippers like sturdy cookies or sliced apples to avoid sogginess.
