Each spoonful delivers a balance of sweet, tangy, and nutty notes, making it a refreshing yet indulgent treat perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 2 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), cored and diced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce, plus more for drizzling
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  2. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined and no streaks remain.
  3. In a separate small bowl, toss the diced apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.
  4. Fold the diced apples, 1/2 cup caramel sauce, and mini marshmallows into the whipped topping mixture until evenly distributed.
  5. Transfer the fluff to a serving bowl.
  6. Chill the Caramel Apple Fluff in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Before serving, drizzle with additional caramel sauce and sprinkle with chopped pecans or walnuts.

Notes

For best results, use a firm, crisp apple variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp to maintain texture.

To make ahead, prepare the fluff mixture and store it covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Add the toppings just before serving.

Feel free to experiment with different nuts, such as almonds or peanuts, or omit them for a nut-free version.

Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to achieve a smooth, lump-free base.
