Chocolate Marshmallow Fruit Dip (Two Ways)

When you want a chocolate version, try one of these variations on the classic marshmallow fluff fruit dip recipe:

Option 1: Cocoa Powder

Sift in 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat to combine. If needed, whisk in 1 to 2 teaspoons milk to loosen.

Option 2: Nutella

Beat 1/3 cup Nutella into the dip until smooth. Taste and add up to 1/2 cup total for a stronger hazelnut-chocolate flavor. A small pinch of salt makes the chocolate pop.

What to Serve With Fruit Dip

  • Apples, strawberries, grapes, pineapple, oranges, bananas
  • Graham crackers, vanilla wafers, shortbread
  • Berry skewers for easy plating

Perfect With a Fruit Tray or Charcuterie Spread
