How to Make Pineapple Cream Cheese Dip
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
- To the bowl, add ⅓ cup of the Roasted Pineapple Habanero Sauce. Blend again until smooth and well incorporated.
- Transfer the cream cheese mixture to a serving dish, and use a spatula to smooth the top.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- When ready to serve, add additional Roasted Pineapple Habanero Sauce and/or green onions on top, if desired. Serve with your choice of dippers!
Pro Tips and Substitutions:
- Soften the Cream Cheese. Leave it at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour before mixing for easier blending.
- Chill before serving. Letting the dip sit in the fridge enhances the flavors even more!
- Swap out the Cream Cheese. Use Greek yogurt or vegan cream cheese for a dairy-free alternative.
- Pineapple Cream Cheese Fruit Dip. To make this 2 ingredient dip more like a pineapple fruit dip, in a medium bowl blend a 7 ounce jar of marshmallow fluff or 4-6 ounces cool whip with 8 ounces cream cheese. Once smooth, blend in ½ cup of the roasted pineapple habanero sauce.
- Make it a Hawaiian Dip. Add a stronger tropical twist by adding coconut and more crushed pineapple (drained) to the mixture. It has amazing flavor!
- Change up the Dippers. Switch up the dippers with veggie sticks, tortilla chips, or even cinnamon sugar pita chips for a sweet twist.
How to Use Pineapple Cream Cheese Dip
Besides using it as a dip with savory ingredients like crackers, chips, pretzels, and your favorite fruits, it's also excellent as a spread! Add it to a fun charcuterie board, on a crudité platter full of veggies, or spread of fresh fruit!
For a delicious breakfast or brunch option, spread it on bagels, toast, or English muffins. Incorporate it into desserts by swirling it into cheesecake, dessert toppings, or even using it as a frosting on cakes or cupcakes. It's also amazing as a spread for sandwiches or wraps!
Storage
Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. The dip might thicken slightly as it chills, so give it a good stir before serving again.
