Crazy Good Fruit Dip

Crazy good fruit dip recipe that I came up with today. I had a birthday party to go to and was asked to bring fruit. So.. I thought it might be nice to have something to dip it in! I wen't to the store and grabbed a couple random things and just mixed them all together. And this is what I came up with! ☺




Ingredients:
  • 3.4 oz package of vanilla pudding
  • 8 oz container of whipped cream
  • 7 oz container of marshmallow cream
  • 8 oz package of cream cheese
Instructions:
  1. First you will want to let your cream cheese get to room temperature, otherwise it will be slightly chunky when you mix everything together.
  2. Once the cream cheese is no longer cold.. you simply dump everything in a bowl and mix it together with a hand held mixer. I am sure you could also use a Kitchen Aid if you have one. I have one.. but I decided to try it with the hand held first.. and it seemed to work really well. ☺
I only ended up needing about half of it for this amount of fruit, I saved the other half in the fridge.


Everyone at the party kept on telling me over and over how much they loved this. I am sure you could even substitute the vanilla pudding for another flavor to mix things up a little, depending on what fruit you are serving. But this dip tasted amazing with the fresh pineapple, apples, strawberries, and grapes that I served up with it. 

I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for reading! ☺

Meaty Deep Dish Pizza

Tonight I was thinking PIZZA! Its the weekend, me and my husband had some episodes of Master Chef to catch up on.. so whats better than pizza?! As you can see in this picture.. there was some dough hanging over the edges.. I cut it off. This is what it looked like cut off so I decided to fold it down so the pie would look prettier. Ready for the oven! All popped out of the pan and ready for devouring.  Sooooooooooo good! I was worried that it was going to be soggy once I cut into it but that liquid was the only bit that was in there.. it was not soggy at all I promise.. it was amazing. I had some spring form pans that I hadn't used yet, and thought it would be a great recipe to test them out with.
