CARAMEL PEANUT BUTTER DIP AND FUJI APPLES



Caramel Peanut Butter Dip and Fuji Apples image

Age level: 4 to 6 years Skill level: beginner

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 8m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

24 wrapped caramel candies (recommended: Kraft brand) 1/2 of a 14-ounce bag
2 Fuji apples
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup water plus 1 tablespoon
2 tablespoonfuls creamy peanut butter
Pinch ground cinnamon (this is your SECRET ingredient)

Steps:

  • Unwrap candies and place into a bowl.
  • Have your GH cut the Fuji apples into quarters and cut into each quarter to remove the core. The GH should then slice apples into 8 pieces per apple. Count for them and make sure they make even slices. You need 16 slices, total. Squirt some lemon juice into a bowl with 1 cup of water in it. Add the sliced apples and turn them around in the lemon water then drain them in a strainer or colander. Lemon juice is sour, but it's only a tiny bit on lots of apple slices. The apples will still taste sweet and really good. The skin of an apple keeps them from turning brown before you cut them, but apples will turn brown once they are cut up and the air can touch their insides. Lemon juice is acidic. That means that it has special properties in it that can keep apples from turning brown.
  • Add 1 tablespoon water and peanut butter to your caramel candies. Place candies in microwave oven on high for 2 minutes. Stir the dip with a rubber spatula. If the candy is not melted all the way, put it back in the microwave on high for another 20 seconds. Add a pinch of cinnamon to the sauce and stir. DO NOT TELL ANYONE ABOUT THE CINNAMON! Tell your GH not to tell, too. This is your secret ingredient.
  • To serve, place drained, sliced apples next to your caramel and peanut butter dip and start dunking!

APPLES AND PEANUT BUTTER DIP

My kids have always loved this as a healthy after-school snack and my Girl Scouts chose to use it for their annual Mother-Daughter Tea.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
8 ounces Cool Whip
8 apples

Steps:

  • Put peanut butter in a medium bowl.
  • Add about a quarter of the Cool Whip and stir until creamy.
  • Add some more Cool Whip, stirring/ folding to further thin the peanut butter.
  • Continue to add Cool Whip in batches until the dip is completely mixed.
  • The trick is to mix completely but not mash any more of the air out of the Cool Whip than is necessary.
  • It will taste great, regardless; but the texture is nicer, the lighter it is.
  • The kids won't care, but adults might notice.
  • Serve the peanut butter mixture with apple slices and dip away.

Tips:

  • For a creamier dip, use a food processor or high-powered blender to blend the ingredients until smooth.
  • If you don't have a food processor or high-powered blender, you can mash the bananas and avocado with a fork until smooth.
  • To make the dip ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as apple slices, celery sticks, carrots, or pretzels.
  • For a sweeter dip, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
  • For a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder.
  • For a more savory dip, add a tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley.
