You Need to Try This Apples and Toffee Dip Recipe

When thinking of a dip for apple slices, most people will jump to think of caramel. That's completely understandable. Caramel is the most popular topping for apples, so much so that apple and caramel combination packs can often be found in stores.

We're trying something a bit different with this recipe. Instead of a caramel dip, we're making a toffee dip. Making your own toffee dip isn't hard. In fact, this recipe can be completed in just four easy steps. You won't need too many ingredients, either.

Aside from the obvious apples, you'll need brown sugar, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, cream cheese, toffee pieces, and pineapple juice. While adding a toffee dip to apples certainly doesn't add any health bonuses, it's still a healthier dessert or snack choice than cookies or cake.

For the apple varieties, we've selected red delicious and granny smith. You can use your favorite types of apples instead, if you wish. We know that some people prefer as much guidance as possible when it comes to their recipes, so that's why we've provided some ideal apple varieties in this ingredients list.

3/4 cup packed brown sugar
