I LOVE this recipe and there is never a wrong time of year to make this dip. It doesn’t last long around here with my boys. I hope you love this dip as much as we do.

Nothing says fall quite like a delicious dip that combines tart apples, creamy sweetness, and crunchy toffee bits. This toffee apple dip with Heath toffee bits makes a huge hit at fall gatherings and offers an irresistible mix of textures and flavors. Made with simple ingredients, this dip pairs beautifully with Granny Smith apples and cinnamon graham crackers, making it the perfect dip for any festive occasion.

Ingredients You’ll Need for Delicious Brown Sugar Toffee Apple Dip

For this sweet toffee apple dip with Heath, gather the following ingredients:

8 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2/3 bag of Heath English toffee bits (or crushed Heath bars)
Granny Smith apples, cut into slices
Optional Dipping Ideas: Cinnamon graham crackers sticks (Scooby-Doo Snacks), Vanilla Wafers, grapes, pretzels, and other varieties of fresh fruit. 

This combination of creamy, crunchy, and tart flavors makes a sweet treat that everyone will enjoy. You can find Heath toffee bits in most grocery stores, or you can crush a few Heath bars if you prefer.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy Toffee Apple Dip

1. Prepare the Cream Cheese
Start with cream cheese at room temperature for easy mixing. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. I use a hand mixer. This smooth base lets the brown sugar dissolve fully, creating a consistent, sweet dip. Make sure the cream cheese has been setting out for at least 30 minutes before making the recipe so that you won’t find little chunks of cream cheese in your final dip. 
2. Add the Brown Sugar and Vanilla Extract
Next, add the brown sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Stir until everything combines thoroughly, resulting in a rich, sweet mixture. The brown sugar brings a warm, flavor that complements the tartness of the Granny Smith apples.
3. Incorporate Heath Toffee Bits: These can be found in the baking aisle near the chocolate chip morsels. 
Gently fold in the Heath toffee bits, spreading them evenly throughout the dip. These crunchy toffee bits add texture and a sweetness to every bite. The Heath bars give this dip an unmistakable toffee flavor, which balances beautifully with the sweetness of the dip.
4. Transfer to a Serving Dish
Once combined, transfer your dip into a serving dish. A wide, shallow dish works best to allow for easy dipping. Before serving, sprinkle additional Heath toffee bits on top for extra crunch and added cuteness.
5. Serve with Tart Apples and Cinnamon Stick Graham Crackers
Serve the dip with freshly cut apples and cinnamon graham crackers. Granny Smith apples work particularly well because their tartness offsets the sweetness of the dip. The crunch of the crisp apple slices and cinnamon sticks adds contrast to the creamy dip, creating a perfect balance.

Tips for Storing and Serving Heath Bar Dip

Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When serving the next day, allow it to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, as the flavors come through best when slightly warm. This dip should last up to three days, though it rarely sticks around that long! Serve with sliced apples for a quick snack.

Why This Dip Makes a Perfect Fall Treat

This toffee apple dip shines at fall gatherings. It combines the crisp, refreshing flavor of tart apples with the sweetness of brown sugar and the crunchiness of Heath English toffee bits.
