Ingredients

Homemade Salted Caramel (can also buy a jar of premade storebought caramel)

  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 6 tablespoons butter, unsalted
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Additional Dip Ingredients

  • 1 container (12 oz.) premade no-bake cheesecake filling (I used the Philadelphia brand)
  • 1/2 bag (8 oz.) chocolate covered toffee bits (you will only need half the bag) (I used Heath brand)

For Serving

  • chopped apples
  • pretzels
  • graham crackers
  • other fruits or berries

Instructions

Homemade Salted Caramel

  • Heat granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly with a high heat resistant rubber spatula or wooden spoon. 
  • Sugar will form clumps and eventually melt into a thick brown, amber-colored liquid as you continue to stir. Be careful not to burn. 
  • Once sugar is completely melted, immediately add the butter. Be careful in this step because the caramel will bubble rapidly when the butter is added. Stir the butter into the caramel until it is completely melted, about 2 minutes. 
  • Very slowly, drizzle in the heavy cream while stirring. Since the heavy cream is colder than the caramel, the mixture will rapidly bubble and/or splatter when added. 
    Allow the mixture to boil for 1 minute. It will rise in the pan as it boils. Remove from heat. Allow to cool down before using (about 20-25 minutes).
    (Can store extra caramel in the fridge in an airtight container.)

Making the Dip

  • In a serving dish, add the entire container of premade cheesecake filling. Spread and smooth it out.
  • On top of the cheesecake, drizzle the cooled caramel. Add as much (or as little as you’d like).
  • Sprinkle the toffee bits on top. Serve with apples and / or graham crackers or pretzels or crackers or other fruit. Enjoy!
