Eggnog Cream Cheese Dip W/Fresh Fruit Wreath image

I know I'm late for the X-Mas season past & WAY early for the next, but I just found this recipe stuck inside a cookbook & want to make sure it doesn't disappear into oblivion again. It's on a 3-pg fold-out entitled "Holiday Recipes", shows the Braum's trademark name & a lovely pic of this recipe is featured on the cover pg - a truly stunning presentation! :-)

Time 10m

Yield 12 2 oz servings, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

16 ounces cream cheese (softened)
1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme
1/4 cup eggnog
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
fresh fruit (as desired)

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl & beat till smooth. (I love my immersion blender & it would be great for this)
  • To Serve: Place dip in a serving bowl on a rd serving plate or platter & arrange fresh fruits around it to create a decorative, edible wreath.
  • HINT: A note says to "Keep any cut fruit fresh by sprinkling w/lemon juice.", but I have found it more efficient to brush the cut surfaces of fresh fruit (such as apples or pears) using my pastry brush -- or -- put lemon juice in a sml plastic bag, add the fruit slices/wedges, shake to cover the cut surfaces w/juice & store in a container w/a snap-on lid till ready to serve.
