It is called Apple Dip but we like to use, not only the Granny Smith Apples with this Dip, but also Green Seedless Grapes. The tartness of the Granny Smith Apples and Green Grapes is a perfect combination with this OH SO SCRUMPTIOUS dip. We have used Gala Apples-they are crisp and sweet with a little bit of tartness to them but we love the Granny Smith Apples better with this particular dip. Sometimes I will have the dip in the middle in a bowl and have green grapes, Red Gala Apples, Red seedless grapes and Green Apples alternating.
Apple Dip
1-8 oz brick of cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1 small jar of marshmallow cream
1 package of Skore English Toffee bits(not the ones covered in chocolate-just the plain ones)
Mix all the ingredients together and refrigerate. This dip is best, if it is made a day ahead of time, because it begins to caramelize. Through out the day pull it out and stir it.
Slice up your apples. As I cut up my apples I have a bowl, about half full, with either lemon lime soda or a lemon water solution. As I slice up the apples they go right into the bowl. This will keep your apples from turning brown and ugly before you serve them. I would not do this process the day before or your apples may get water logged but you can definitely do it several hours before so you aren't trying to get apples slices up right before an event.
I have used Granny Smith and Gala Apples plus Red and Green Seedless Grapes on a round tray, placing the apples across from each other and the grapes in between the two, with the dip in the middle. It looks pretty, it provides sweet and tart options, but best of all-it tastes-OH SO WONDERFUL.

ReplyDeleteHey girlfriend! I've been out of the loop with sickness and trying to get back in the swing. I even forgot to put my name in the link up - oh well! Ha! I have a similar apple dip - yours is a little more simple so I will give it a try for sure! Happy Halloween!
