How to Make Amazing Apples With Creamy Caramel Dip
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until completely smooth and creamy.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture into a deep 9-inch pie dish.
- In a separate saucepan, combine ½ cup packed light brown sugar, ¼ cup heavy cream, and 2 tablespoons of butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a simmer. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and stir in ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt.
- Pour the warm caramel sauce evenly over the cream cheese layer in the pie dish.
- Sprinkle generously with ½ cup toffee bits and ¼ cup chopped pecans or walnuts.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the dip to chill and set completely.
- Just before serving, core and cut 2-3 medium apples (a mix of red and green for visual appeal) into wedges. Arrange the apple wedges around the edge of the pie dish, alternating colors.
