Daring to dip your strawberries in something other than chocolate is certainly an adventurous choice. We understand the hesitation. However, there’s a delightful alternative that can add a unique flavor to your next strawberry treat. Consider dipping them in a blend of sour cream and brown sugar. The caramelization of the brown sugar enhances the creamy, tangy richness of the sour cream, creating a delectable combination that perfectly complements the fresh, juicy strawberries.
Even better, this requires very few ingredients (technically only two). You need about one cup of sour cream and two tablespoons of brown sugar to make this delectable concoction. Stir the ingredients together in a bowl, and let the dip chill for a bit in the fridge. While you're waiting, read up on some facts about strawberries everyone should know. Once your dip has cooled, give it another stir before generously dousing your washed strawberries into it for a yummy, sweet coating. Better yet, you don't have to stop with dipping just strawberries; this combination pairs well with other fruits, such as peaches, watermelon, blueberries, grapes, and pineapple. Each fruit helps to curate a totally different tasting experience. Looking for other flavorful fruit dips? This two-ingredient fruit dip is the recipe you need for your next potluck.

Keeping this creamy creation as two ingredients is more than good enough, but sometimes you want to add a little extra flair to your dishes. If that's the case, this fruit dip can easily be doctored up to your liking. For example, add some vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste to impart a sweeter note. Consider using other extracts, too; think cheesecake flavoring for an extra tangy and custardy taste or cake batter to mimic a tasty bowl of confetti cake filled with buttery flavors.
Place a few dashes of cinnamon into the mix. The aromatic cinnamon pairs perfectly with the rich brown sugar, emulating a cinnamon roll in dip form. Side note — you can totally dunk homemade soft pretzels into this mixture, too. This makes for a sweet, spiced, glazed bite. For a toffee-like taste, stir in one of your favorite sauces, like salted caramel, or scoop in a tablespoon of creamy peanut butter, perfect for having fresh and tart slices of your favorite variety of apple.
