Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup toffee bits
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Apple slices or graham crackers for serving
Instructions
- Remove cream cheese from refrigerator and allow it to soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes to ensure smooth mixing.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and creamy peanut butter. Use an electric mixer or whisk to blend until completely smooth and no lumps remain.
- Gradually add powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, mixing on low speed to prevent sugar from flying out of the bowl.
- Pour in vanilla extract and continue mixing until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is creamy and uniform in texture.
- Gently fold in toffee bits using a spatula, distributing them evenly throughout the dip.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 15-20 minutes to allow flavors to meld and dip to firm up slightly.
- Before serving, let the dip sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.
- Arrange apple slices or graham crackers around the dip for serving. Garnish the top with additional toffee bits if desired.
- Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Room Temperature Magic: Always let your cream cheese soften naturally at room temperature for smooth, lump-free mixing.
- Mixing Technique: Use an electric mixer on low speed to prevent powdered sugar from creating a messy cloud in your kitchen.
- Toffee Bit Distribution: Fold toffee bits gently to ensure even spread throughout the dip.
- Serving Suggestions: For the best texture and flavor, let the dip sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Make-Ahead Friendly: This dip can be prepared up to 2 days in advance, making it perfect for party planning.
- Dipping Alternatives: While apple slices and graham crackers are classic, try pretzels, banana chips, or even chocolate cookies for variety.
- Storage Tip: Keep refrigerated in an airtight container and consume within 5 days for optimal freshness and flavor.
