½ cup powdered sugar

Food coloring in pink and red
Various sprinkles

How to Make Valentine’s Day Dip

Beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and beat until combined.

Mix in the marshmallow cream and vanilla.

Fold a large spoonful of the thawed whipped topping into the dip mixture. Then fold the remaining whipped topping into the dip until completely combined.

Divide the dip into bowls and add food coloring as desired. Carefully mix until the colors are incorporated. Do not overstir as the dip will deflate.

Add small dollops of the differently colored dip to a bowl. Then, run a knife or bamboo skewer around in the dip to create swirls. Do not overstir or the dip will become burgundy.

Top the dip with assorted sprinkles.

Serve with your choice of cookies (like vanilla wafers, butter cookies, shortbread cookies, sugar cookies, and/or gingersnaps) or fruit.

Tips & Tricks

Use Room-Temperature Cream Cheese: Softened cream cheese ensures a smooth and creamy texture.
Don’t Overmix: When swirling the colors, stop once you achieve a marbled effect to avoid blending the colors too much.
Chill Before Serving: Let the dip rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up and intensify the flavors.
Go Wild with Dippers: Beyond cookies, try apple slices, strawberries, or pretzel rods for unique dipping options.

FAQs

Yes! You can prepare the dip up to a day in advance. Just keep it refrigerated and add the sprinkles right before serving to maintain their crispness.

Absolutely! If you prefer homemade whipped cream, simply fold it in the same way as the store-bought version for a light and fluffy texture.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Give it a quick stir before serving again.

Of course! Switch up the food coloring and sprinkles to match the theme of any holiday—green for St. Patrick’s Day, red and green for Christmas, or pastel hues for Easter.
