Ingredients
  

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1/4 cup honey, plus extra for drizzling

Zest of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend until smooth and creamy.

    Add the honey, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the mixture. Continue to beat until all ingredients are well incorporated and the dip is fluffy.

      For a delightful swirl effect, transfer half of the dip to a serving bowl and drizzle with a bit of extra honey. Add the remaining dip on top and repeat the honey drizzle.

        Use a knife or a skewer to gently swirl together the two layers, creating a marbled effect.

          Chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

            Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves and an additional drizzle of honey for an added touch of sweetness and color.

              Serve with an assortment of dippers like graham crackers, apple slices, or fresh berries.
