Step-by-Step Instructions for Caramel Apple Cheesecake Dip
  1. In a mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese using an electric mixer on medium speed until it's smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Gradually add 1 cup of powdered sugar to the cream cheese, continuing to mix on low speed.
  3. Gently fold in 8 ounces of whipped topping with a spatula, mixing until the dip is light and fluffy.
  4. Spread the creamy base evenly into a shallow serving dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  5. Pour the caramel sauce evenly over the cream cheese layer, letting it cascade to the edges of the dish.
  6. Top the dip with 2 medium diced apples and, if desired, a sprinkle of crushed pecans.
  7. Cover the dip with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Remove the dip from the refrigerator just before serving, and set out an assortment of dippers.
