Ingredients

Scale

Dip Base

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar (adjust to taste)

Topping

  • 5.5 oz caramel sauce or caramel dip (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/4 cup pecans, toasted

For Serving

  • Apples or other fruits for dipping

Instructions

  1. Mix the Base: In a medium bowl, cream together the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and brown sugar until fully combined and smooth.
  2. Assemble the Dip: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly onto a serving plate or shallow bowl, creating a slightly deep layer to allow for easy dipping.
  3. Add Toppings: Pour and spread the caramel sauce evenly over the cream cheese layer. Then sprinkle the toasted pecans on top to add crunch and flavor.
  4. Serve or Store: Enjoy the dip immediately or refrigerate until ready. Before serving from the fridge, let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to soften for easier dipping. Serve with sliced apples or your choice of fresh fruits.

Notes

  • You can adjust the brown sugar to make the dip sweeter or less sweet based on preference.
  • To toast pecans, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes until fragrant.
  • For homemade caramel sauce, use a simple recipe of sugar, butter, and cream cooked until golden and smooth.
  • Best served fresh but can be refrigerated up to 2 days.
  • Letting the dip soften at room temperature improves the texture for dipping.
