Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake Dip
This Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake Dip is creamy, smooth, satisfying and jam-packed full of fresh strawberry flavor. It’s literally like cheesecake in the form of a dip! Perfect for serving with gluten-free graham crackers, whole strawberries, sliced bananas, or fingers spoons alone 😉
Because what’s better than cheesecake… made dippable… and HEALTHY?!? Ohhhh yessss.
This dip is preeetty darn incredible. It’s super simple, doesn’t require any baking, and takes just a few minutes to make. You’ll be ready to dig in in mere minutes! The total opposite compared to regular baked cheesecakes, which can take hours to prepare, bake, cool, and chill. Oh, and no silly water baths needed either.
Nuh-uh, this is a no-nonsense recipe. Just a quick and easy dessert that’s perfect for any time of day. Breakfast included 😉
I think it’s about time to serve dessert for breakfast, don’t ya think?
This Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake Dip is refined sugar free, low carb, low fat, high protein, gluten free, and all natural. Now that’s some serious strawberry lovin’ right there!
Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake Dip
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup Fresh Strawberry Puree*
- 2 cups Low Fat Cottage Cheese
- 2 tsp Lemon Juice
- 1 tsp Vanilla Paste
- 1 tsp Natural Butter Flavor
- 1 tsp Liquid Stevia Extract
Instructions
- *Wash your strawberries, cut the greens off, and puree in a food processor. Pour the puree out of the processor and into a bowl. Measure ⅔ cup of the puree and place back inside the food processor (you can drink any leftovers!).
- Add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and blend until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
- Scoop the dip into bowls and serve with gluten-free graham crackers, whole strawberries, sliced bananas, mini chocolate chips, or spoons alone.
I’m really likin’ the short and simple ingredient list! I know cottage cheese might sound like a strange ingredient to use in a dessert but it’s just as versatile as cream cheese, ricotta, or yogurt. It has a very neutral flavor so you can pretty much do anything you want with it. The strawberries add sweetness, the vinegar (or lemon juice) adds that unique tanginess kin to cheesecakes, and the vanilla paste rounds out the overall flavor and brings everything together.
If you’re looking for a quick and easy healthy treat, look no further. You have found the one!! I can’t believe this has only 70 calories per serving… seriously. It tastes like it’s stuffed with calories and fat.
Enjoy!

This looks delicious! And most of the ingredients are probably already in the fridge/pantry!
Have you tried it without the Butter Flavour?
I haven’t tried this without the butter flavor but I’m sure it’ll taste just fine without it 🙂
Hope you like the recipe!! It’s delicious 😉

This looks so good but was wondering have you tried this with anything else besides pureed strawberries? I am allergic to strawberries. Do you think blueberries would work just as good & if do how many would you think I would need? Ty Jess love this idea
Yep, any other fruit would work. Blueberries would be delicious! I have other cheesecake dip recipes on the blog too 🙂

I just made this the other day and it’s beyond amazing 😍. I’m thinking I’ll need to make a Costco trip soon so I can make this regularly (the entire batch was gone within a day 🙄).
Oh yeah, same here!! This stuff never lasts long around me either 😉
Thanks for making the recipe Natalie!
This is the best thing ever! I love putting frozen mixed berries in this cheesecake dip. I love how the macros are so great and it tastes so good!
The dessert looks really yummy. I would just like to know what is that white creamy
stuff on top of the dessert. I think my family is going to love this dessert.:)
It’s actually yogurt, but I’ve used whipped cream before too! Hope you all love the dip! 🙂
