We are a caramel apple loving family. Especially the giant-size of your head- caramel apples that are studded with chopped peanuts, chocolate chips and toffee bits. Such an indulgence!
This caramel apple dip is so much easier to make than traditional caramel apples, sharable, and ready to enjoy in just 15 minutes! This dip is perfect for any fall occasion or for a game day dessert.

How to make it
With a hand mixer, mix together the cream cheese and sugar. Add that mixture into a deep serving dish or bowl
Pour the caramel sauce on top
Leave as is or top with chopped peanuts, mini chocolate chips, or toffee bits.
Serve with apple slices or graham crackers. Dip and enjoy!
Tip!
To prevent the apples from turning brown, cut the apples into chunks and soak for 5 minutes in a bowl of water with 1 teaspoon of salt. Rinse the apples and pat dry.
Topping Ideas
Top your dip any way you choose! For a party, you could make multiple dishes because it’s so simple, and top each dish with something different. I just think of the toppings I see on candy apples. So many delicious possibilities!
- Chopped nuts
- Mini chocolate chips
- Toffee bits
- Crumbled Oreos or other cookies
- Flaky sea salt
- Crushed pretzels
- Mini M&M’s
- Granola
- Sprinkles
- Shredded coconut
What to serve
I love an assortment of apples to serve alongside the caramel dip such as Granny Smith apples, Pink Lady, Red delicious, or Fuji.
Other ideas:
- Graham Crackers- honey, chocolate or cinnamon
- Scooby snacks
- Cookies- chocolate, gingerbread or gingersnaps, Nilla wafers, sugar cookies
