I think it should be a requirement that all fruit be paired with this dip, Sarah! I’m loving the sound of a 5 minute dip that involves peanut butter! I think I would dip everything and then some into this, but mainly just my spoon!

This is the kind of dip where I would just throw out the fruit and eat it with a spoon!! Not that I don’t like fruit, but this dip seriously looks so good that I don’t want anything else messing with the flavor, haha! I used to buy flavored cream cheese and just eat it out of the tub! This dip looks awesome, Sarah!!
Sarah says
YES. Spoons are just necessary when there’s cheesecake dip involved! Thanks so much, Izzy! xoxo 🙂
Melanie @ Carmel Moments says
That looks simply scrumptious! My kids would inhale it of course. Because everything is delish that’s made with peanut butter!
Sarah says
Haha AGREED! Peanut butter is just the answer to all things. 😉
