Notes
- Choose high-quality ingredients to get the very best flavor.
- Bring your ingredients, especially the butter and cream cheese, to room temperature for easier mixing.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency for the dip, gradually add a small amount of milk or water while stirring until you reach your desired thickness.
- To prevent apples from browning, soak them in a mixture of water and lemon juice before serving. Drain well and pat dry before dipping.
- For a fun twist, serve the dip in a hollowed-out apple. Simply cut off the top of an apple and use a spoon or melon baller to scoop out the center, leaving a sturdy shell to fill with the dip.
- Apple varieties such as Granny Smith, Gala, or Pink Lady, which have a nice crisp texture, hold their shape and work well for dipping.
- Storage - leftovers can be kept in an airtight container inside the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
