YOU GUYS! As I was icing my Coconut Icebox Cake I addcidently discovered this Creamy Coconut Fruit Dip and I can’t stop eating it!
But since you dip fruit in it and fruit is good for you it’s totally healthy!
Interesting tidbit…..even though coconut is in the title, this dip is just as fantastic without the coconut! If you or your family or your company don’t like coconut leave it out! The dip will be just as fantastic, actually most of the time people don’t even realize the coconut is there.
And once again Mud Pie to the rescue for this “sweet” little candy/dip serving dish. It has a tiny little pedestal so it sits just above the fruit and worked out perfectly. But don’t get me wrong-most of the time we were eating this out of the sour cream container I was storing it in!
Creamy Coconut Fruit Dip
For the smoothest dip the sugar and the sour cream need to be mixed together ahead of time. Ideally, the day before and allowed to sit in the refrigerator overnight. That makes this the best dip to make ahead. It only gets better the longer it sits and the flavors meld together.
Sometimes when I am making this I run my coconut through my small food processor for a couple of pulses. While I love coconut I can’t stand it getting stuck in my teeth, this helps with that a ton!
