I love fresh fruit all year round, but especially in the summer. This is my favorite fruit dip, and this is my favorite fruit dressing. My friend Mary Jane McDaniel shared the Spiced Fruit Dressing recipe. They are both easy and delicious anytime. Enjoy!

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (7-ounce) container marshmallow creme
1 teaspoon vanilla or ½ teaspoon almond flavoring
Few drops pink food coloring
With mixer, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. Beat in marshmallow creme, vanilla or almond flavoring, and a few drops of food coloring. Serve with fresh seasonal fruit. Store in refrigerator up to two weeks. | Yield: 2 cups

½ cup honey
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon allspice
