Easy Creamy Caramel Dip
Easy, creamy, and delicious ... this Creamy Caramel Dip is just perfect for dipping apple slices and pretzels. Whip it up in no time flat.
I have a confession to make. I have an apple problem. See, I don't really like apples. I know, I know. You're thinking ... 'What?? How can you not like apples??' Well, I just don't. It's a texture thing, I think.
'Cause there are only two ways to get me to eat apples.
1. Bake 'em up in something sweet {hello, Slow Cooker Apple Pudding Cake!} or cook 'em up 'til they're totally mushy {like Maple Fried Apples}. And,
2. Pick 'em fresh off the tree so they're so hard when you bite into them they about break your teeth.
So see, it's texture. Apples have to be completely soft, or completely hard for me to like them. None of that in-between, mealy, mushy junk for me.
Unless, of course, their in-between mushiness is disguised with a sweet, creamy dip.
Like this Easy Creamy Caramel Dip.
Then I can {kinda} handle eating apples. But seriously, only if they're sliced. See, I told you I have an apple problem.
