STRAWBERRY PIE DIP

STRAWBERRY PIE DIP 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened 1 c confectioners sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 – 3 oz package Strawberry Jello 1 c heavy whipping cream Optional: 1/2 c diced strawberries 1 tsp sugar 1 tsp balsamic vinegar Graham crackers Note: If your strawberries aren’t sweet, mix together the diced strawberries, sugar and balsamic vinegar. Let sit in glaze for 30 minutes (or longer) then drain. In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until creamy. Add in confectioners sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy. Depending on how pink or how strong a “strawberry” flavor you want, gradually add in the strawberry jello mix. Continue to beat to mix together. In a separate mixing bowl using clean beaters, beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into dip mixture. Mix in strawberries and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Serve with graham crackers.
