Happy New Year Gang!
At work we had a potluck, and one of my coworkers brought this. Her description was, "it's like crack." After hearing what was in it, I was anxious to try it, and once I had, understood the analogy because it was so addicting. My advice is try this BEFORE starting the new year diet because it is hard to quit. I am not sure I agree that Granny Smiths are bitter: I do think they're more tart, but not necessarily bitter. This will probably work with any apple (or spoon) you choose to employ, but I would say it's particularly suited to a more tart apple as this is sweet enough to make your teeth fall right out of your head (but you'll enjoy every minute of it).

Apple Dip
2 8-oz packages of cream cheese, softened
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 container of caramel apple dip (in produce section, by apples)
3 Heath bars, crushed (Skor bars are more dense and don’t crumble as easily)
6-8 Granny Smith apples, sliced (it may be easier to buy the pre-sliced in the bag so they don’t brown)
Mix together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and ¼ of the container of apple dip. Put in a shallow pan and put in the fridge to firm up. (Can do this the night before.) Use the rest of the apple dip to make a layer on top of the cream cheese layer. Top with crushed Heath Bars. Serve with apple slices. Use the Granny Smith apples because they are bitter and make a good combo for the sweet dip. After cutting the apple slices, soak them in an uncola (like Sprite or 7-Up for a minute or two so they will not get brown.

Need to try this. We've had some delicious apple dips before and I agree that apples on the tart side of the flavor spectrum work very well with something sweet. We'll have to try this one. Anyway, I have a great idea for a new recipe. Combine one orange tree, california dirt, california sun and adequate water. Just add postage. Thanks for the BEST best ORANGES oranges ON THE Face FAce face OF THE EARTH EArth earth!
