Description
Think caramel apple on a stick—but party-ready, mess-free, and layered into pure indulgence. With a fluffy cream cheese base, a rich caramel middle, and a crunchy toffee crown, this dip is the ultimate fall crowd-pleaser. It comes together in 10 minutes flat and will disappear even faster. Perfect for game days, potlucks, or cozy nights in with a bowl of crisp apple slices.
