What Type of Cranberries to Use Fresh or Frozen?

You can use either fresh or frozen cranberries in this recipe. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them first and drain any excess water.

  2. Pulse a few times to combine the ingredients.
  3. Add cream cheese to the bottom on an 8×8 baking dish or 9 inch pie plate.

  • Fresh Fruit
  • Fresh Vegetables (Celery, Carrots, Broccoli, etc)

How to Store the Dip/How Long it Will Last in the Fridge

The dip will last in the fridge for about 3 days. If you are making it ahead, I recommend making it the night before.

Freezer Tips

Because this dip is made with dairy ingredients, if frozen it will have separation and become watery. A frozen cheese or cream dip would either be crumbly or watery when it is thawed. I would not freeze this dip. You can read more about How to Freeze Dips here.
