Ingredients
  

1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream (your choice)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), cored and diced

1/2 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans, optional for crunch)

1/4 cup toffee bits (optional for sweetness)

Fresh apple slices and graham crackers for serving

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer set to medium speed and beat the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.

    Integrate the Greek yogurt (or sour cream) along with the ground cinnamon into the cream cheese mixture. Continue to beat until everything is well-combined and no lumps remain.

      Carefully fold in the diced apples, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dip for both flavor and texture.

        Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the dip and gently fold it in, reserving the remaining caramel for presentation. If you are using nuts and toffee bits, fold those in now to add extra crunch and sweetness.

          Transfer the creamy mixture to a decorative serving bowl. Top with the reserved caramel sauce, allowing it to cascade over the dip. If desired, sprinkle additional nuts or toffee bits on top for garnish.

            For optimal flavor infusion, chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

              Serve the dip alongside fresh apple slices and graham crackers for an enticing and indulgent dipping experience. Delight in the luscious combination of caramel and cheesecake flavors!
