Flavor Ideas
Instead of vanilla, you can try out a plethora of other flavors to suit your preferences
- Honey cinnamon: Beat in 1 tsp of ground cinnamon and 2 tbsp honey to the mixture for a healthier yet delicious option. It is particularly helpful if you are suffering from a cold but craving something yummy.
- Jello: You can beat in Jello powdered mix in different fruit flavors like cherry, mango, green apple, peach, fruit punch, etc.
- Pumpkin spice: Beat in 2 tbsp pumpkin puree and 1.5 tsp pumpkin spice for this delectable flavor. Alternatively, you can use 1 tsp cinnamon, ¼ tsp nutmeg, ¼ tsp ginger and a pinch of cloves. Healthy, isn’t it?
- Berry: For this, just swap the plain cream cheese with strawberry or blueberry cream cheese spread
- Orange: Lend the dish a fresh citrusy taste by mixing in 2 tbsp orange juice concentrate. We bet you will like its looks too!
- Chocolate: Throw in 2 tbsp cocoa powder to the mix
We really like how creamy, fluffy marshmallow spread, tangy cream cheese and earthy vanilla come together to create the perfect accompaniment to your favorite fruits. It is because the cream cheese perfectly balances the sweetness of the marshmallow crème preventing the snack from being overly sweet.
