Cherry Lime Cheesecake Dip

Ingredients

• 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup plain, nonfat Greek yogurt
• 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest, divided
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1 (21-ounce) can cherry pie filling
• Pretzels, graham crackers or vanilla wafers, for dipping

Instructions

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, use a hand mixer (or stand mixer) to combine cream cheese, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon lime zest, and lime juice until smooth.

Spread evenly onto a serving dish. On top of cream cheese mixture, evenly layer cherry pie filling and sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon lime zest. Serve with pretzels, graham crackers, or vanilla wafers. Store leftovers in fridge. Can be made in up to 1 day in advance.

Note: If you use dark brown sugar, your finished product will have a slightly brown hue to the base of the cheesecake dip. If you want a whiter look, try light brown sugar or powdered sugar.
