Caramel Cinnamon Apple Dip

Can I get an "amen" to this glorious dippty-dip? Yet another tasty treat I can't delight in but non the less make it for the husby. I definitely deserve a designer bag when this whole elimination diet is donzo! I have to admit - I had to keep tasting it and spitting it out in the sink (as not to swallow it) so that I could see if ratios/ingredients were correct. Seriously, playing with poison. Oh and the apples are a new favorite - Honeycrisps! SOO heavenly. The name describes them perfectly: sweet and crisp.

Ingredients:
16 oz cream cheese (at room temp)
1/2 - 3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 T cinnamon
1/4 t salt
1 t vanilla extract
1/2 cup health candy bits (look on bakers aisle)
caramel syrup for drizzling
optional: chopped peanuts for garnish w/more toffee bits

Directions:
combine all ingredients until well incorporated. drizzle caramel sauce on top and add more toffee and/or peanuts as a garnish on top. slice apples thin and toss in lemon juice to keep from browning (tip: OJ will also work if you don't have lemons).

Psst! This recipe would also work with a fruit platter using various fruits.
