Flourless Pecan Caramel Apple Cookie Dough Dip RecipeFor the first time in our five and a half years as parents, we hired a babysitter for an evening. Now don’t get me wrong, we have had date nights, but we have always had grandparents or aunts watch the boys so that we could go out for dinner or a movie or a football game. We’re not going to delve into my psyche here – I’m a cheap, paranoid and overprotective hermit and I’ll freely admit it.

Moving on.

We had a babysitter. Oh the possibilities – go for a nice quiet dinner at a dimly lit fancy restaurant, hang out at a bar for a couple of cocktails and some college football, go see some live music. Nope. We went to a little Peruvian joint in the corner of a strip mall with the early birds (read: senior citizens and families with kids) and then to a furniture store to order bunk beds for our kids.

So maybe we were “adulting” versus “dating”. But we had sangria. And ice cream. And we weren’t the ones in the furniture store with the screaming kids. I’m calling it a win.

Oh, and our kids want the babysitter to watch them again, and she said they were cute and good. So we have at least one more opportunity for a date night before they show her their true crazy selves and she never wants to come back. Kidding. Sort of. But yeah, that’s a win too.

You know what else I’m calling a win? This…

Caramel Apple Pecan Flourless Cookie Dough Dip makes a great dessert dip

I hadn’t even planned to make this Caramel Apple Pecan Flourless Cookie Dough Dip, but I was making a healthy cookie dough base and I used more than I needed of one of the ingredients, so I figured I’d just double up on the secret healthy ingredient, split it, and make two dips. I looked in my fridge and the jar of caramel sauce I bought in a moment of weakness food blogger preparedness was calling my name.

“Brianne, Brianne, you know if you leave me in this jar here, you’ll just bust out a spoon and polish me off. You know I am not reaching my full potential unless you pair me with some apples and pecans. I want to be slathered over all of that cookie dough.”

So this easy cookie dough dip recipe, my friends, is a happy accident. An ooey gooey, sweet and sticky, smooth with a bit of crunch happy accident. It’s a good thing I listened to that talking ice cream topping, am I right?

  • 3 Tablespoons caramel sauce divided (2 Tbsp. + 1 Tbsp to drizzle on top)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
