I took this dip to a ladies' gathering the other night, and they went crazy for it...
AND they cleaned every bit from the dish until the last bit was gone...it really is that good.
And yes, I got a text for the recipe the next day!
PRO TIP: Arrange the cut apple slices in a spiral around the dip. I used an inexpensive galvanized tray. You will LOVE this dip!

Salted Caramel Apple Dip
Ingredients
- 1 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
- ½ cup powder sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4-5 tablespoons salted caramel sauce (Smuckers brand)
- 3 bars Heath candy bars
- ¼ cup fresh lemon
- 4 medium Granny Smith Apples
Instructions
- In a medium-size bowl, beat the soft cream cheese with an electric mixer until very smooth and creamy about 3 minutes. Add the powder sugar, milk and vanilla, beat until well combined.
- In a small bowl, spread the dip mixture evenly, then drizzle 4 or so tablespoons of caramel sauce, then sprinkle the crushed Health bars over the top.
- Squeeze the lemon juice in a medium-size bowl, this will help keep your apples from turning brown!
- Use an apple slicer or a knife/melon ball to scoop out the seeds, slice each apple into ½" slices. Toss the sliced apples in lemon juice to coat which keeps them white, and will stop the browning.
- Unwrap the Heath bars and chop them on a cutting board into a small pieces.
- Place the dip bowl in the center of a round white platter, and then arrange the cut apple slices in a spiral around the dip. Cover with plastic wrap a couple of hours before serving.
- If serving next day, keep the dip in the fridge, pull out a couple of hours before the party, sprinkle the cut the candy bars on top, and cut and arrange the apple slices right before your event.
