Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

12 oz caramel sauce or homemade caramel

1/2 cup toffee bits or crushed Heath bars (optional)

34 apples, sliced (Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Gala)

1 tsp lemon juice


Instructions

1. Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature or microwave for 10–15 seconds until soft.

2. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

3. Spread the mixture evenly into a shallow serving dish.

4. Warm the caramel sauce briefly and pour it over the cream cheese layer. Spread evenly.

5. Sprinkle with optional toppings like toffee bits or crushed nuts.

6. Slice the apples and toss with lemon juice to prevent browning.

7. Arrange apple slices around the dip and serve at room temperature.

Notes

For smoother consistency, always use room-temperature cream cheese.

Store leftovers in an airtight container and let sit at room temp before serving again.

Add a pinch of sea salt or cinnamon to elevate the flavor.
