Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt. Use a hand mixer on medium speed to beat the mixture until it is completely smooth and free of any lumps
Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract to the bowl. Continue beating for another minute until the dressing for your Cheesecake Fruit Salad is light and airy
Carefully wash all of your fruit and dry them thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels
Slice the strawberries and halve the grapes, ensuring all fruit pieces are roughly the same size
Gently fold the prepared fruit into the cream cheese mixture using a large silicone spatula
Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully before serving

Notes

For a lighter version, consider using Neufchâtel cheese or low-fat cream cheese.

Fresh fruits should be used as much as possible as they hold their shape better than canned fruits.
