Apple with Caramel Dip

One of our goals at the Amateur Chef is to provide you with some easy appetizer recipes that taste great and are healthy for you as well. This Apple with Carmel Dip recipe my sister made a number of years ago fits that bill.

I had forgotten how easy this recipe was to put together, especially considering how great it tastes. This is one of the best appetizers we have found to make for a large group of people as it appeals to adults and children alike, and can easily be used as a light dessert instead of an appetizer.

Make certain you use tart green apples (granny smith apples) as the tartness of the apples compliments the sweetness of the caramel.

Apple with Caramel Dip

Green Granny Smith Apples cut into wedges (toss in lemon juice to prevent apples from turning brown)

Blend together:
1 8oz package cream cheese
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
Spread onto a plate or small platter

Heat:
1 container carmel spread in the microwave for 15 seconds and spread over the cream cheese base.

Top with skor bits, cool and serve with wedges of green apples.

Enjoy!
