Pineapple Cream Cheese Dip Appetizer
This is my easy to make pineapple cream cheese dip appetizer. It’s that time of year when we have the wonderful opportunity to enjoy time with friends and family around the holidays. This recipe actually started as a cheese ball appetizer. We all know how recipes get shared with others and soon the recipe becomes our modified recipe! This is one of our family’s all-time favorite holiday appetizers.
Pineapple Cream Cheese Dip
This recipe can be made a few days in advance and then just add the pecans at the last minute. What I love about appetizers is the fact that you can stand around and chitty chat while enjoying a small snack in between conversations. You know we look at all the yummy snacks on the table and grab a small plate. We get to laugh and “catch up” with each other. Life is good!

Final Word
This is one of my all-time favorite cheese balls or dips to take to parties. Who loves pineapple cream cheese dip? We serve this at every holiday get-together. Enjoy.
Yes this recipe has been around! My mom has what I think is the original. She cut it out of a newspaper back in the 50’s. The original was for a cheeseball and it is a lovely piece, but for ease, just a bowl of dip is quick!
Mickey, the original recipe I have said to add chopped bell peppers…I have never added those! It has been in my recipe box for at least 40 years! Hugs! Linda
Sounds good Linda!

Love this but I do add the bell pepper, green and red around Christmas, yellow, orange for summertime, you can mix them up. I chop them pretty small too because it’s easier to eat and chat that way.
Hi Erin, oh my gosh, I want to try using green and red bell peppers!!! I love it! Thank you, Linda
I have made this recipe for about 40 years n I add the green n red pepper cut in very small bits too. My family loves this
