Caramel Apple Dip

I have always loved apples. I usually eat an apple every day and I look forward to this time of year for the harvest of crisp, crunchy apples. I like the sweet ones, the sour ones and everything in between. I am however not a huge fan of cooked apples so I usually just get my apple straight up. Recently however, I have found a new love for my apples. This caramel apple dip is so heavenly I dare to say I may never eat a naked apple again.



Caramel Apple Dip



Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon



Instructions:

1. In a 2-quart saucepan, melt butter on low heat.

2. Add brown sugar, corn syrup, and milk, stirring to combine. Increase heat to medium (or perhaps just below medium). Mix and heat low and slow to make sure that the sugar is completely dissolved.

3. Stir constantly until mixture comes to a boil. The longer you cook it the thicker it will be.

4. Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla and cinnamon.

5. Serve warm or cold with apple slices, or drizzle over ice cream.
