Ingredients

  • 1 container (7 oz) marshmallow creme
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
  • 1 tsp peppermint extract
  • 7–8 candy canes, crushed (reserve some for garnish)

Directions

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the marshmallow creme, softened cream cheese, and peppermint extract until smooth. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer on low speed to avoid overworking the cream cheese.
  • Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined and the mixture is light and airy.
  • Stir in the crushed candy canes, leaving a small amount to sprinkle on top for garnish. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle the reserved candy cane pieces over the surface.
  • Serve immediately with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, pretzels, strawberries, apple slices, or any dippers you prefer. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
