Lemon Dip – Barefoot in the kitchen

Creamy lemon dip served with fresh berries, graham crackers or shortbread cookies is a light, summery dessert perfect for sharing with friends.

Lemon fruit dip

I made this dip for a pool party with friends a while back and it was gone in a flash. Children and adults happily scooped it up with the ladles and then almost licked the bowl clean.

The fluffy-sweet fruit dip is tempting enough straight off the spoon, but when you serve it with graham crackers, fresh strawberries, or shortbread cookies? I can tell you with certainty that no one is able to resist him.

For the lemon curd in this dip, I used my 5-Minute Microwave Lemon Curd. It succeeds perfectly every time and it’s honestly easier than going to the store to buy lemon curd.

This recipe will yield more than you need just for this lemon dip, but you won’t feel sad about it.

Easy fruit dip recipes

Fruit dips and lots of fruit for dipping are among my kids’ favorite snacks. I like to find every possible excuse to make and eat all those dips.

Thick and creamy, the cinnamon spice yogurt takes about 10 seconds to whip together and makes a great dip for apples. It’s also a great breakfast with a sprinkling of granola and berries.

Crunchy Peanut Butter Apple Dip is easy and slightly sweet, perfect to enjoy with apples, pretzels, or anything else you want to dip in it.

This creamy cranberry jalapeno dip is lightly sweetened and balanced with just a hint of the hot peppers. Served with crackers and pretzels or as a spread, this is an unforgettable holiday treat.

This peanut butter honey yogurt dip was “officially” named our house favorite when my boys were little. I repeated it for months! Who knew yogurt would go so well with peanut butter? It makes the dip smooth and creamy and adds a light spiciness that’s nicely balanced by a bit of honey.

How to use Lemon Curd

While scooping it straight up to your mouth with a spoon is always a good plan, lemon curd is also fun to use in a variety of recipes.

I use this bowl, whisk, and spatula to make this recipe. You will also need the following ingredients:

• cream cheese
• fat whipped cream
• lemon curd
• fresh strawberries, graham crackers or butter biscuits for dipping

Lemon curd dip

Place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Slowly add the heavy cream while continuing to mix until fully combined and the mixture is fluffy.

When the cream cheese and heavy cream are well combined, add ¾ cup lemon curd and mix again to combine. To serve, transfer to a bowl and garnish with the remaining lemon curd.

Cover and refrigerate until ready to eat. Serve with berries, graham crackers or butter biscuits for dipping.

Dessert Dip Recipes

A fully loaded chocolate chip cookie dip served with lots of sliced ​​apples is my kids’ idea of ​​a perfect dessert snack.

Caramel Cheesecake Dip is without a doubt one of the best impromptu recipes ever. I had some cream cheese left over after making a few batches of cookies and about half a jar of caramel sauce too.

So I threw this cream cheese in the blender and whipped it until smooth, then drizzled over the caramel sauce until it tasted just right. The five of us sat right after lunch dipping apples in this dip and managed to wipe out almost half of the dip in just a few minutes.

Creamy, lightly sweetened candy cane dip is the perfect addition to a dessert cookie display or holiday snack tray. For a sweet and salty treat, try dipping pretzels in it.

Served with lots of fruit, cream puffs, graham crackers and pretzels, this dessert fondue board is a treat for the eyes and for every taste bud.
