Ingredients
Scale
Peanut Butter Caramel Dip
- 1 (11 oz) bag caramel squares (about 40), unwrapped
- ¾ cup (177ml) heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup (134g) creamy peanut butter (not natural)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the unwrapped caramel squares, heavy whipping cream, and creamy peanut butter into a medium saucepan.
- Heat and Stir: Place the saucepan over low heat and stir continuously for about 8-10 minutes until the caramels have completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Transfer the warm dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately with apple slices, graham crackers, and/or pretzels for dipping.
- Store Leftovers: Any leftover dip should be stored in the refrigerator and can be gently reheated before serving again.
Notes
- Use creamy peanut butter for best melt and flavor; natural peanut butter may alter texture.
- Stir constantly to prevent the caramel from burning.
- Serve warm for the best dipping experience.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Gently reheat on low heat or in short bursts in the microwave before serving again.
