What, I ask you, is better than ripe, fresh cut fruit?
Easy! Ripe, fresh cut fruit dipped in one of the best fruit dips of course!
This dip was actually contrived from a cake I used to make. It was called an angel lush cake. Some of you might have made this cake…it used to be on the back of vanilla pudding packages. The idea was to make this delicious mixture, spread it on an angel food cake and top with strawberries. It was really good, but the actual cake part was a distant second to the delicious pineapp-ly, creamy, wonderful pudding mixture, now known as my fruit dip recipe!
I decided to make it without the cake and –voila! Pineapple Fruit dip was born. This dip is amazing served with strawberries, bananas and even graham crackers. It is addicting, I am giving you fair warning, but it is a great, fresh addition to your dessert table, especially for summer get togethers. I also find it is a fun, after school treat for the kids too.
My kids loooooove fruit, but the fruit dip is just icing on the…..well, fruit?
