Ingredients

Scale

Dip Base

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened at room temperature
  • 8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Topping

  • 16 ounces Old Fashioned caramel dip
  • 1 cup Heath pieces or chopped toffee bits (English toffee recommended)

Dippers

  • Sliced apples
  • Graham crackers
  • Pretzels

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, thawed Cool Whip, and powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. Make sure there are no lumps of cream cheese remaining for a velvety texture.
  2. Assemble the dip: Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture onto a serving platter to form the base layer.
  3. Add caramel topping: Spread the Old Fashioned caramel dip evenly over the cream cheese layer to create a rich, sweet top layer.
  4. Garnish with toffee: Generously sprinkle the Heath pieces or chopped toffee bits over the caramel layer to add a crunchy, buttery contrast.
  5. Serve and store: Serve immediately with your favorite dippers such as apple slices, graham crackers, and pretzels. Store any leftovers refrigerated until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened completely before mixing to avoid lumps.
  • Choose firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best dipping experience.
  • Chopped toffee bits add extra texture and flavor; substitute with chopped nuts if preferred.
  • The dip can be prepared a few hours ahead and refrigerated—just add toffee bits fresh before serving to maintain crunchiness.
  • This dip is best served chilled but allow it to sit for 5-10 minutes at room temperature before serving if stored refrigerated for a creamier texture.
