If you love the taste of pecan pie, you are going to adore this dip. It is a sweet, creamy treat that brings all the rich flavors of toasted nuts and brown sugar to your dessert table in just a few minutes.

I love serving this at parties because guests always think it took hours to make. My favorite tip is to make sure your cream cheese is completely soft before you start mixing, as it makes the texture so much smoother and easier to serve with crunchy dippers.

🧺 Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup caramel sauce
Apple slices or graham crackers for serving

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese, brown sugar, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
2
Spread the cream cheese mixture into a serving dish or pie plate.
3
Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the top of the dip.
4
Drizzle the caramel sauce over the nuts and the cream cheese base.
5
Serve immediately with your favorite apple slices or crunchy graham crackers for dipping.

💡 Tips

This dip is best served at room temperature for the creamiest texture. If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. For an extra boost of flavor, toast your pecans in a dry pan over medium heat for three minutes before adding them to the dip.
