CHEESECAKE FRUIT SALAD

Cheesecake Fruit Salad image

Creamy, luscious, smooth base to stir a wonderful pile of fruit into. This is a great dish to take to a potluck, or share as a summery dessert. You could even scoop this over angel food cake as a variation. But it doesn't need anything more than a spoon! Don't combine too far in advance, as the cream mixture may absorb liquid from the fruit and start to break down.

Steps:

Combine milk and pudding mix in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix until incorporated. Slowly blend in cream cheese, increasing the speed to high until mixture is smooth. Mixture should be somewhat thick.
