Caramel Skor Bar Dip for Apples

Super Bowl is this weekend and that means everyone is getting ready to make their favorite snacks to munch on during the game.  We had this amazing dip served with apples at our friends’ house on New Years and we seriously couldn’t get enough of it.  Apples and caramel are the perfect pairing.  It isn’t necessarily super healthy, however, you will be amazed at how many apples your kids….and hubby…will eat!  So let’s say it sort of balances itself out!

I didn’t mention cream cheese in the title, because this dip honestly doesn’t taste like cream cheese, but you do get the benefit of the protein.
