Cheesecake 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 and Dipping
- 5.5 oz caramel sauce or caramel dip (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/4 cup pecans, toasted
- Apples or other fruits, for dipping
- Prepare the Cheesecake Base: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Assemble the Dip: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over a serving plate or shallow bowl, creating a layer thick enough to comfortably dip fruits into.
- Add Caramel Sauce: Pour and spread the caramel sauce evenly over the cream cheese layer to cover the surface.
- Garnish with Pecans: Sprinkle the toasted pecans over the caramel layer for added texture and flavor.
- Serve: Serve immediately with sliced apples or other fruits. Alternatively, store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. If chilled, allow the dip to sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before enjoying to soften.
Notes
- For the best flavor, use freshly toasted pecans.
- You can substitute caramel sauce with homemade or store-bought caramel dip.
- Feel free to add extra brown sugar if you prefer a sweeter dip.
- The dip is best served at room temperature for easier dipping.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
