Toffee Apple Dip Recipe

This toffee apple dip is the perfect sweet appetizer for fall gatherings or an afternoon snack. Made with a tangy cream cheese base, sweet brown sugar, and crunchy Heath candy bar bits, it’s creamy, rich, and ready in just 5 minutes.

Serve it with crisp apple slices as part of a fall charcuterie board or alongside a caramel apple bar for an easy, crowd-pleasing treat. If you love easy dessert dips, this pumpkin cheesecake dip is another fall favorite!

Ingredient Notes

  • Cream cheese: Soften your cream cheese before mixing together. It is best to leave it on the countertop for about 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature.
  • Brown sugar: The brown sugar and the cream cheese mixture blend well together giving this dip a sweet and tangy flavor.
  • Vanilla: Added for a delicious flavor! Just a splash makes a sweet and savory difference.
  • Heath toffee bits: Heath English toffee bits are the perfect sweet and savory treat to add to this apple dip. They have a crunchy texture that is perfect when dipping your apples in. You can even chop up Heath candy bars or Skor bars for bigger chunks.
  • Crisp apple slices. For serving. I like using Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Gala for their fresh crunch and sweet-tart flavor.
