Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- 1 cup brown sugar light or dark
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup optional toppings such as toffee bits, chopped nuts, chocolate, caramel, etc.
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla on medium-high speed using a handheld mixer until smooth and creamy, and the brown sugar has dissolved into the cream cheese, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours, to let flavors meld.
- After the dip has chilled, transfer it to a serving dish and top with toffee bits, chopped nuts, chocolate, caramel, etc., if desired.
- Serve with sliced apples, pretzels, strawberries, or graham crackers.

Notes
Cream Cheese: You can use room-temperature full-fat or low-fat cream cheese, but I don't recommend fat-free, as it is not as rich and creamy.
Forgot to let your cream cheese come to room temperature? Keep the cream cheese sealed in its foil wrapper and place it in a bowl of warm water for 5-10 minutes. Remove from the water, pat the foil dry, then proceed with the recipe.
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
