Where can I find marshmallow creme?

You should be able to find marshmallow creme in the baking aisle near the chocolate chips and other baking toppings. If you can’t find it, you could also use marshmallows. Just place about 30 regular marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl and heat them on high for about 60 seconds, or until they are completely melted. Stir until smooth and then proceed with the recipe as directed.

What are some variations for this fruit dip recipe?

If you want to change up this recipe, here are a few ideas:

  • Add in some chopped nuts for a crunchy twist
  • Swap out the orange for another citrus fruit like lemon or lime
  • Try using different extracts in place of the orange juice and zest (vanilla, almond, etc.)
  • For a chocolate twist, add in some cocoa powder or melted chocolate
  • Add in some chopped dried fruit for a chewy addition
  • Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg for added flavor
