Lemon Cheesecake Dip

Lemon Cheesecake Dip just plain melts in your mouth!  It’s got a slight cheese cake flavor with the crushed graham cracker coating, and OF COURSE I had to use some neufchatel cream cheese to try to slim it down a little :)

Lemon Cheesecake Dip

 

It’s a cinch to mix up and goes well with any kind of fruit~ strawberries, apples, oranges, etc.  My friend, Kara, brought this into the office the other day and I liked it so much, I had to share it with you all…

 

Lemon Cheesecake Dip is a fun spring time dip that goes fabulously with whatever fruit is in season… You’ll want to eat the whole batch :)
