Cheesecake Dip Ingredients
- Cream cheese – Full fat cream cheese, softened. We used plain cream cheese but this would also be delicious with flavored cream cheese like strawberry cream cheese, cinnamon cream cheese, or blueberry cream cheese.
- Sweetened condensed milk – Canned; this is not the same as evaporated milk.
- Vanilla – Real vanilla extract.
- Optional mix ins – Mini chocolate chips, cocoa powder, crumbled oreos, crumbled freeze dried strawberries or mangoes, apple pie spice, pumpkin pie spice.
- For dipping – Fresh fruit (strawberries and sliced apples are my favorite), graham crackers, cookies (like animal crackers or our shortbread cookies!).

Preparation
Can you creamy cheesecake dip ahead of time?
For sure! I actually find the flavors blend together better when it’s made at least a few hours in advance. You can definitely make it up to a few days ahead as well.
Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
What mix-ins can I add to cheesecake dip?
Try mini chocolate chips, crushed graham crackers, crumbled oreos, or bits of freeze dried fruits.
You can also make it a chocolate cheesecake dip by beating in cocoa powder or a packet of hot cocoa mix. Go seasonal with a scoop of pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice!
Swirl in a can of fruit pie filling like blueberry or cherry pie filling. Top with our cinnamon fried apples, or stir in some lemon curd.
Is it safe to eat raw cheesecake batter?
No, cheesecake batter has raw eggs and raw flour and therefore should not be consumed. That’s why we recommend making this dip if you love the flavor of cheesecake!
Storage and leftovers
How long is cheesecake dip good fort?
This recipe will keep in the fridge for about a week. Make sure to check the use-by date on the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk, and definitely don’t keep it longer than the shorter of those dates.
Can you freeze cheesecake fruit dip?
We do not recommend freezing this recipe.

Going to try this next month for a party im going to 😃
Can I use this in a pie
This dip was the perfect dip paired with a fresh fruit tray! My guests loved it.
Thank you for sharing this delicious dip! I made it for a get-together and it went so fast!!
I was afraid to try this, thinking it would be too sweet, but I experimented and found the right flavor for me. I used less evaporated milk and added a little sour cream. It was a hit, and I was asked to make it again. It was easy, tasty, and didn’t require heating up the kitchen.
