Better Dip Than Chocolate!!!

I use this fruit dip all the time! Great at party's and it keeps pretty well so it's great the next day as a quick snack too.

Delicious for both adults and kids
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is wonderful, though pretty loaded with calories due to the whipping cream and cream cheese. I made it Paula's way the... first time and it was delicious. Then I used lowfat (or fat-free) Cool Whip and half low-fat cream cheese and half fat-free cream cheese (Philly) and I couldn't believe it but it tasted the same! There was not any loss in flavor yet a huge loss in fat and calories. This is a winner every time. Be sure to add the pineapple juice. It really does make a difference, adding just the right bit of sweetness to the lemon's tartness.Read more

This dip was easy and delicious..One tip I have is to freeze the pineapple holder before you serve it..it will help dip stay... colder longer and not thin out...Read more

I made this and only had an hour for it to chill before we ate, but it was a huge success! We served it with grilled fruit... and the kids went wild! Thanks, Paula.Read more

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

The French Cream was absolutely amazing. I used orange juice instead of the pineapple juice and it was perfect! Also, to make... it a little less unhealthy I used reduced fat cream cheese and non-fat whip cream. It came out perfect and you don't feel as guilty! Everyone loved it!Read more
