Slow Cooker Strawberry Cheesecake Dip
This version uses your slow cooker to make a creamy cheesecake‑like dessert dip with minimal effort:
Ingredients
- Cream cheese (cold and cubed)
- Sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- Granulated sugar
- Strawberry pie filling or thick strawberry topping
How It’s Made
- Lightly spray the inside of a small slow cooker (2–4 qt).
- Stack cubes of cream cheese in the bottom.
- Whisk together sour cream (or Greek yogurt) and sugar, then pour over the cream cheese.
- Cook on LOW for ~1.5–2.5 hours, until the cream cheese is very soft.
- Stir until smooth and velvety.
- Gently swirl in the strawberry topping.
- Serve warm with graham crackers, cookies, fruit, or pretzels.
Tips: Because this uses a slow cooker, it’s great for parties or when you’re busy with other tasks while it cooks.
