Dipping sauce for fresh fruit?????

[abacoacathy]

I've had a delicious dipping sauce for fresh fruit. I think that the sauce was made from cream cheese, cream, sugar & some sort of alcoholic flavoring?? Does anyone have this recipe???? Thanks & happy new year

OOh - i'm saving some of these! My standard one (because I always have the ingredients) is sour cream and any flavor fresh fruit spread. Depending on the flavor, add some nutmeg or cinnamon. It definetly needs to sit for a couple of hours or over night.

Balsamic Cream on fruit is unusual and very tasty.

3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup creme fraiche
1 teaspoon sugar

Whisk the vinegar, creme fraiche, and sugar in a heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat until it thickens and resembles a sauce, about 8 minutes.

I had a nice dipping sauce once. It was yoghurt, drained a little so it is thicker. About a tablespoon (or two) of brown sugar or honey to a cup of plain yoghurt and a dash of vanilla. It was very good.

8 oz. container of sour cream (even fat-free works with this one.), 1/4 cup. brown sugar and a good handful of coconut!! Let the flavors meld a couple of hours or overnight. Mix well and serve w/fruit for a tropical taste!! Been making this for years. Always a hit!!
Enjoy!!

Zabaglione sauce is a wonderful sauce for fresh fruit. It's made in a double boiler with egg yolks, sugar and a liquor like Gran Marnier.

Not the one you're looking for, but some other ideas. Mix Greek yogurt with:

-cocoa powder and honey
-lemon curd
-cooled double-strength tea, cinnamon, cardamom and honey
-toasted coconut, coconut extract, pineapple juice
-room temp. peanut butter, ground ginger, brown sugar
-orange juice and zest, maple syrup
-dulce de leche

If alcohol is called for in fresh fruit dip it is *usually* orange liqueur, but it also usually says that orange juice can be substituted.
I think any fruit flavored alcohol could be treated the same way?

Also, here is my favorite:
"Ambrosia Topping for Fresh Fruit"
...
2 cups yogurt
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon orange juice
3 fluid ounces honey
mix mix mix, enjoy.

If I use flavored sweetened yogurt, I decrease the honey to taste.
(Makes about 2 1/2 cups)

I just found it:

Can you believe the name? lol.

FRUIT SALAD WITH YOU WON'T BELIEVE
WHAT ITS MADE WITH DIP

Strawberries
Grapes
Watermel on
Pineapple
Kiwi
Bananas
Any fruit in season
2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
16 oz. fluff marshmallow creme
Food coloring (optional)
Dessert shells (sponge), optional

Wash and slice fruit in the manner you would for a traditional fruit salad. If it is off-season for certain fruits, add some sugar for sweetness (you can also use a sugar substitute). Toss fruit together in bowl. Refrigerate.
Mix softened cream cheese with equal amounts of fluff marshmallow creme; mix until smooth. You can leave it white or use food coloring to compliment your choice of fruits. Put in bowl and refrigerate until you serve.

You can serve it as a dip or serve dessert shells filled with dip and topped with the fruit.

Thanks. Not sure its the same one as I had, but someone else also recommended the fluff!! Will give it a try. Happy new year

[mcel215]

I had a great one, that is made with:

cream cheese
Marshamallow fluff (yes, believe it!)
1 tablesp. orjage juice concentrate

Mix together, and it is fantastic. I just don't know the
amounts, as it's been awhile since I made it. Let me check.
