msmarmalade, It does not have all ther perservitives that mcdonld’s does; expesially if you use Cream cheese, Brown Sugar, and vinalla that is not the super processed stuff that they sell at most supermarkets. I would also bet dollars to doughnuts that even if you used regular processed ingrediants but kept it to the same size of that little tub, it would still be healthier!!!

Tried it this weekend with Granny Smith apples – had to stop myself from cutting up another apple just to have an excuse to eat more. Thanks!

This is also amazing if you throw in a few chopped peanuts!

How can anyone suggest this is less healthy than the McDonalds dip? children need sugar and fat, but they don’t need artificial sweeteners, colours, flavours and/or preservatives. This dip looks great, easy and with few ingredients, thanks for the great recipe!!

Looks tasty if you like that sort of thing, but my calculations show that it’s actually higher in fat than the McDonalds version.

We made this all the time in college, except we never thought to add vanilla. I think I’m going to have to make this again.

Which is the healthy part? The cream cheese or the sugar?

When we were kids, my best friend’s mom used to make this for us with apples or graham crackers to dip, but I remember swiping the entire tub and eating it with a spoon! SO DELICIOUS!
