Delicious & nutritious! I used light cream cheese to lower the fat content. I have to admit that everyone was a little skeptical about the flavour combinations but very pleasantly surprised once they tasted it. We each put some apples, dip & peanuts on our own plates so we could do lots of "double-dipping". -
Although this recipe was quite easy and kid-friendly, I found that most of the kids prefer the apples plain. The dip was quite thick and a little too cumbersome. Not terrible, but we won't try it again. -
Noticed this recipe was not rated, so, being familiar with it and loving it, thought I'd rate it for you. I have had this recipe for years....every time I serve it someone requests the recipe! It is easy and YUMMY! I use the lesser amount of brown sugar and only 1/2 c. of chopped peanuts..and then mix all the ingredients together..but I do like the idea of keeping the peanuts separate for "dipping" and may try it the next time I make this. Thanks for posting!
