Easy Toffee Apple Dip Recipe

A homemade caramel sauce is one of my weaknesses. Some of my favorite caramel treats are saltine cracker toffee, turtle chex mix, caramel popcorn balls, and microwave caramel candies.

I love sweet caramel apples in the fall and this easy toffee apple dip takes caramel apples to a whole new level. My friend introduced me to this 5 minute sweet dip recipe and I love it as a quick snack with sliced apples. It’s great on a fall charcuterie board or to include on a caramel apple bar when entertaining.

Caramel Apple Dip Ingredients

This family-favorite caramel apple dip is so simple to make with only four ingredients!

  • Cream cheese: Soften your cream cheese before mixing together. It is best to leave it on the countertop for about 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature.
  • Brown sugar: The brown sugar and the cream cheese mixture blend well together giving this dip a sweet and tangy flavor.
  • Vanilla: Added for a delicious flavor! Just a splash makes a sweet and savory difference.
  • Heath Toffee Bits: Heath English toffee bits are the perfect sweet and savory treat to add to this apple dip. They have a crunchy texture that is perfect when dipping your apples in. You can even chop up Heath candy bars for bigger chunks on top!

Flavor variations: Feel free to substitute toffee bits with chopped Snickers, chocolate chips, nuts, and more. Add in mini chocolate chips or up to 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
