Method
 

Preparation
  1. Wash and core the apples, slicing into wedges about 1/2 inch thick. Soak in lemon water for about 5 minutes to prevent browning.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing on low speed to prevent clouding. Then mix in vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gently fold in the caramel sauce, reserving some for drizzling on top.
  5. For a firmer dip, refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes.
  6. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, drizzle with reserved caramel sauce, and sprinkle with optional toppings.
  7. Serve alongside the prepared apple slices and enjoy!

Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of powdered sugar. Using room temperature ingredients helps achieve a smooth dip. Chill for improved texture and flavor melding. Prevent browning of apple slices with lemon water soak. Experiment with additional flavors as desired.
