Ingredients

225g cream cheese*
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt**
1/2 cup (50g) powdered sugar/icing sugar, sifted
The juice and zest of one small lemon

Instructions

Add your cream cheese, yogurt and sugar to a mixer and beat until combined.
Whilst beating, add your lemon juice and lemon zest and mix until combined.
Spoon into serving bowl and serve with a fruit platter, slices of pound cake or vanilla cake, cookies or whatever you fancy.

Notes:

*You can use full fat or reduced fat cream cheese. Brick style full fat cream cheese will make a thicker dip whilst spreadable reduced fat cream cheese will make a softer dip. **Again, you can use full fat or reduced fat yogurt. I used full fat greek yogurt because it's creamier.
