Ingredients
Scale
Dip Base
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 3 tbsp heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup brown sugar (add more to taste)
Toppings
- 5.5 oz caramel sauce or caramel dip (store bought or homemade)
- 1/4 cup pecans, toasted
To Serve
- Apples or other fresh fruits for dipping
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, cream together the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Assemble the Dip Base: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over a serving plate or in a shallow bowl to create a layer thick enough for dipping fruit comfortably.
- Add Caramel and Pecans: Pour and spread the caramel sauce over the top of the cream cheese layer. Sprinkle the toasted pecans evenly on top for added crunch and flavor.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy the dip immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. If refrigerated, allow the dip to sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before serving to soften for easy dipping. Serve with sliced apples or your choice of fresh fruits.
Notes
- Use softened cream cheese for easy mixing and a smoother texture.
- Toast pecans lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes to enhance their flavor before sprinkling on top.
- Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preferred level of sweetness.
- Leftover dip can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Try substituting apples with pears, strawberries, or banana slices for variety.
