"Everybody-Loves-Chocolate" Fruit Dip

Preparation and total time: 20 minutes
This keeps well for several days and freezes well.
Serves 15
Ingredients:
- 1 small container whipped plain cream cheese (8 oz.)
- 1/2 pint heavy whipping cream
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder (or to taste)
- 1/3 cup sugar (or to taste.)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Fresh fruit (Strawberries, pineapple, apples, and oranges are good.)
Put all your ingredients, except the fruit, into a mixing bowl.
Whip until the ingredients are blended and fluffy—about two to three minutes.
Wash the fruit and cut it into bite size pieces.
Substitutions:
You can substitute unwhipped cream cheese and two cups of whipped topping. (The whipped cream cheese makes for a fluffier end result and the whipping cream has a better flavor.)
