    • vanilla yogurt
    • milk 
    • instant cheesecake pudding mix

    • blueberries

    See the printable recipe card for quantities and full recipe.

    Instructions

    A bowl with cream and pudding in a mixing bowl.
    A bowl with a cheesecake dip batter and a whisk.

    Step 1

    In a large bowl, add yogurt, milk and cheesecake pudding mix.

    Whip together until fully incorporated and fluffy.

    Note: You can do this with a whisk or a hand mixer. Whichever you prefer!

    A bowl with vanilla pudding and whipped cream.

    Step 2

    Fold in the thawed whipped topping.

    That's it! So easy. If not serving the dessert dip immediately, store it in an air-tight container in the fridge.

    Step 3

    When ready to serve, move the dip to a serving bowl and top it with chopped strawberries, raspberries and blueberries.

    Tip: Wait to add the fresh fruit to the pudding fruit dip until ready to serve so they stay vibrant!

    To Serve

    A portion of cheesecake fruit dip on a white plate with graham crackers and more dip and cookies in the background.

    Serve this tasty recipe for cheesecake dip with fruit, graham crackers and vanilla wafers.

    Other great dippers are apple slices, pretzels, chocolate graham crackers, shortbread cookies, animal crackers, and sugar cookies.

    Variations

    • Mix up the flavor of this yummy sweet dip with a different flavor of yogurt. Lemon enhances the freshness while strawberry or blueberry adds an extra berry taste! (This will most likely change the red, white and blue color scheme though).
    • Make Strawberry Cheesecake Pudding Shots by using the method above and serving in shot glasses.
    • When not serving for the Fourth of July, try changing up the fruit on top! This dip is also delicious with other varieties of fresh fruit! You can even go tropical with kiwi, pineapple and mango.
    • Turn these into Berry Cheesecake Cups by serving individual portions of this sweet dip in ramekins which would be perfect for parties!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is fruit dip made of?

    Fruit dip can be made a number of different ways. This version uses cheesecake pudding mix to add another layer of flavor that is so tasty. The whipped topping and milk keep things super creamy. And the tang of the yogurt pairs perfectly with the pudding mix.

    Can you mix the fruit into the dip?

    Yes! If you prefer, you can mix the red and blue berries into the dip. It won't change the flavor, just the presentation. If you are looking for a patriotic dessert, I would keep them on top so you can really see the colors. You can also skip adding the fruit altogether and serve this as a traditional fruit dip with whole strawberries.
