Ingredients
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
1 (3.4 oz) package instant coconut cream pudding mix (or vanilla pudding mix)
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut (plus extra for garnish)
1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes (optional, for extra flavor)
Graham crackers, fruit, or other dippables for serving
Instructions
-
Whip the Cream Cheese and Sour Cream: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and fluffy.
-
Add Powdered Sugar and Pudding Mix: Mix in the powdered sugar and the coconut cream (or vanilla) pudding mix until fully combined.
-
Whip the Heavy Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract together until stiff peaks form.
-
Fold the Whipped Cream into the Cream Cheese Mixture: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
-
Add Shredded Coconut: Fold in the sweetened shredded coconut for that rich coconut flavor.
-
Chill the Dip: Cover and refrigerate the dip for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
-
Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, sprinkle the dip with toasted coconut flakes for an extra crunchy, flavorful topping. Serve with graham crackers, fresh fruit, or any other dippables you like.
Notes
This dip can be made ahead of time and chilled for a few hours or overnight for even better flavor.
Substitute whipped topping (like Cool Whip) for the whipped cream if you prefer.
For a dairy-free version, swap dairy ingredients with coconut-based alternatives and ensure the pudding mix is dairy-free.
You can use toasted coconut instead of sweetened shredded coconut for a deeper coconut flavor.
