Tailgating is a great opportunity to get to hang out with your friends and kiddos while cheering your college sports team on to victory! Get the party started with fun and festively decorated collegiate serve ware from Magnolia Lane. The chip and dip or divided vegetable trays make for excellent center pieces. Other pieces available are bowls, trays and glassware. Here is a super easy fruit dip that would be great to take to your next tailgate.
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1 jar of marshmallow creme
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Step 1 - Soften cream cheese by leaving it out on the kitchen counter or by microwaving it on low power for 30 seconds
Step 1 - Place cream cheese in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth
Step 3 - Add marshmallow creme and vanilla and beat until fluffy
Step 4 - Serve with an assortment of fresh fruit.
