Another one of those summer no-bake appetizers/desserts that I love so much - I really do hate turning on the oven when it's hot outside! The crunch of the toffee bits really adds to the appeal of this quick, easy apple dip. Read more . It negates all the healthiness of the fruit, but you gotta splurge once in awhile, and when you do, you might as well go all out (at least that's MY theory!)...enjoy. Ingredients:
16 ounces cream cheese, softened |
2/3 cup brown sugar |
1 jar of the thickest, richest caramel ice cream topping you can find (i'm a big fan of mrs. richardson's) |
1 bag (11 ounce) heath bits (or any chocolate coated toffee bits - or you can always go the extra mile and make your own toffee to crush!!) |
about 6 apples, cored and sliced (no need to remove the skin - it's good for you!) |
note: to prevent apples from turning brown after you cut them, either sprinkle with some fruit fresh (available at the grocers) or soak the slices in some salt water for about 10 minutes, then rinse well before placing on serving platter - a little citrus fruit juice will work, too, like some orange juice or lemon juice, but those juices will affect the taste of the apple slices, so you may not want that if you want the caramel apple flavor to dominate) |
Directions:
1. Mix together the cream cheese and brown sugar until well blended.
2. Spread mixture out thinly on serving platter.
3. Spread caramel ice cream topping over the cream cheese layer.
4. Sprinkle toffee bits all over the caramel topping.
5. Surround dip with slice apples and DIG IN!
