Description

This easy apple pie dip recipe offers all the delicious flavors of apple pie without the baking. It features a creamy vanilla cream cheese base topped with tender, cinnamon-spiced apples. Perfect for parties, holidays, or a cozy night in, it’s a quick and crowd-pleasing dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • Juice from ½ lemon
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 4 oz Cool Whip
  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Make the apple pie filling: In a large bowl, toss the diced apples with lemon juice, brown sugar, and cinnamon until evenly coated.
  2. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the apple mixture and a splash of water. Stir and bring to a boil.
  3. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about 10 minutes, until apples are soft.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together a few tablespoons of the pan liquid and the cornstarch until smooth.
  5. Pour the cornstarch mixture back into the pan. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and turns glossy.
  6. Remove from heat and let the apple filling cool completely.
  7. Make the cream cheese layer: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  8. Add the Cool Whip, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until fluffy and well blended.
  9. Assemble the dip: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly into your serving dish.
  10. Spoon the cooled apple pie filling over the cream cheese layer.
  11. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve. Pair with graham crackers, cookies, or pretzels.

Notes

  • Granny Smith apples are recommended for a sweet-tart balance, but you can use Honeycrisp or Fuji for a sweeter dip.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar based on apple tartness.
  • Add a pinch of nutmeg, allspice, or apple pie spice for extra warmth.
  • For a shortcut, you can use canned apple pie filling; warm it and spoon over the cream cheese layer.
  • This dip is best served chilled but can be brought to room temperature for 15-20 minutes before serving.
  • Do not freeze this dip as the texture may be compromised.
