Recipe Introduction
Delicious! This makes a lot of dip though! I thought it tasted similar to the cream cheese and marshmallow fluff fruit dip.
I used light cream cheese; decreased the granulated sugar to 2 T. and will probably skip it all together next time; I added 1/2 tsp. vanilla when whipping the cream; only used half a lemon for the juice because it was big and juicy but used all the zest; omitted the pineapple juice. I just served it with grapes, cantaloupe and strawberries. Yum!
List of Ingredients
2 whole pineapples
2 large clusters green seedless grapes and
several clusters Champagne grapes
6 oranges -- peeled and sliced
into wheels
1 cantaloupe -- cut into cubes or
balled
1 honeydew melon -- cut into cubes or
balled
24 long stemmed strawberries
6 kiwi -- peeled and sliced
(6 to 8)
2 cups blueberries
Red Leaf lettuce -- to line silver tray
French Cream:
1 package cream cheese -- (8-ounce)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 lemon -- zested and juiced
Pineapple juiceRecipe
Soften cream cheese and then whip with powdered sugar. Whip cream and sugar together until it forms soft peaks. Combine beaten cream cheese, whipped cream, lemon juice and zest; continue to beat, adding just enough pineapple juice to achieve desired consistency. Serve with fresh fruit tray or fruit salad.
