How to Make 3 Ingredient Fruit Dip Marshmallow Fluff

Add marshmallow cream and vanilla until the mixture is well-combined with a smooth and fluffy texture.
Recommended Tools
- This is my favorite hand mixer!
- You need a solid spatula, I love these!
Then, chill the marshmallow cream fruit dip until transferred to a serving bowl, and serve it with your favorite fresh fruits and more!
Fresh Tips
- For easier mixing, use an electric mixer. You can whip this by hand, use a strong whisk for best results, and pat yourself on the back for your arm workout!
- For a healthier version of this easy fruit dip recipe, swap the full-fat cream cheese for low-fat Neufchatel cream cheese.
Fruit Dipping Ideas
Make up a tray using a variety of fruits with a bowl of this delicious fruit dip recipe in the middle.
- Berries – Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and more! Fresh berries are perfect for this sweet and fluffy fruit dip. For smaller berries, like blueberries, use skewers to make dipping easier!
- Grapes – Juicy green or red grapes are delicious when dipped in the soft marshmallow cream fruit dip. Skewer a few to make it easier!
- Tropical fruits – Flavorful pineapple, kiwi, and mangos are excellent options for dipping into this creamy fruit dip.
- Pears, Apples and Bananas – Crispy sliced apples and pears contrast the silky texture of the marshmallow fluff fruit dip.
- Melons – The subtle flavors of melons, like cantaloupe and watermelon, make great dippers for the rich sweetness of the dip.
- Peaches – Like grapes, the juiciness of peaches combines with the simply-sweet dip oh-so-well!
- Oranges – Peel cuties or mandarin oranges, or sweet naval oranges for dipping.

Bake up my easy shortbread recipe and cut into tiny fingers for dipping; this dip is also delicious using pretzel rods or sticks for a sweet-salty treat. But I will be honest, my boys (including the hubby) will grab a spoon — no judgment here!
S’mores Dip
Serve with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Thins, graham crackers, marshmallows, and small dark chocolate pieces. Perfect for fall festivals and Halloween parties.
