Easy Block Cream Cheese Appetizer Spreads – Sweet

For an easy, sweet dessert dip you can use Strawberry Pie Filling.(Jump over to this post to see all my suggestions on pie filling.)

I find Townhouse Pita Crackers Sea Salt are sturdy, lightly salted, and don’t have any weird flavors going on that will conflict with the dessert dip. For dessert dips, I also like to use graham crackers or shortbread cookies as dippers.
