Creamy Orange Fruit Dip
This Creamy Orange Fruit Dip was on my Super Bowl menu this year, so I decided to update it with some new pictures and share it again for those who may have missed it.
It’s one of those simple but fabulous recipes that everyone seems to love. It’s rich and creamy, and tastes like a Creamsicle, only smoother and creamier.
My sister gave me the recipe years ago and I get requests for the recipe whenever I make it. The dip comes together in a flash, as long as you have your cream cheese and the orange juice concentrate at room temperature. You don’t even need to use a mixer.
This dip isn’t low fat or low cal, but since you’re only eating a tablespoon or so of it and you’re eating it with fruit, I feel pretty good about eating it. The orange zest is my only change to the recipe. I think it adds just a little extra zip and a nice color.

This recipe is part of a Virtual Baby Shower for Two Peas and Their Pod hosted by Marla, Family Fresh Cooking, and Lisa, With Style and Grace. Friends of Maria and Josh are posting a fun craft or recipe to help celebrate their soon to arrive little pea.
Maria and Josh are going to be great parents and I’m sure there will always be cookies in the house. I wish them an easy, uneventful, quick delivery and look forward to holding their sweet little angel.
In addition to participating in the Virtual Baby Shower, I had the privilege of helping host a Baby Shower for Maria at my house with some of Utah’s best food bloggers. We had a great time at the shower catching up with old friends and new, talking about babies and giving birth, and of course talking about food.
If you’ve ever been to a food bloggers party, you know the food is going to be fabulous. A big thank you to everyone who brought food, and Deborah, Taste and Tell, for getting the ball rolling and taking care of the decorations.
