Ingredients
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup French vanilla creamer or 1 cup heavy cream + 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 package (3.4 o) instant cheesecake pudding mix (or vanilla + lemon zest)
- 2 cups sliced strawberries
- 1½ cups blueberries
- 2 bananas sliced + 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 cup mini marshmallows optional
- 1 cup whipped topping or Cool Whip optional
Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese with a mixer until smooth and fluffy.
- In another bowl, whisk cheesecake pudding mix with French vanilla creamer for 1–2 minutes until thickened.
- Add the thickened pudding to the cream cheese and mix until fully combined and creamy.
- Toss banana slices with lemon juice to keep them from browning. Gently fold in strawberries, blueberries, and bananas.
- Stir in mini marshmallows and whipped topping, if using, just until blended.
