Kids Lunchbox Club - Caramel Choc-chip Dip

CARAMEL CHOC-CHIP DIP


In a small bowl or ramekin mix together:

1/4 cup tofutti cream cheese
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon maple syrup
Stir until well combined and the sugar has dissolved into the cream cheese.
Gently stir in:
1 Tablespoon Sweet William Choc Chips


Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into another bowl/ramekin & add an equal amount of water. 
Slice an apple into thin slices.
Let them soak in the lemon mixture for 3-5 minutes.
This will stop them from turning brown.

Put both the apples and the dip into portable containers.

    1. Thanks! I'm actually surprised by the amount of children who turn their nose down at anything that isn't in a 'packet'! Its so sad! If its home-made because its not perfect shape etc they assume they don't like it!!!!

  4. What a great idea for lunchboxes! I wish we could get Tofutti over here. I've heard such good things about it. The only vegan cream cheese I've ever tried was really horrible. Yucky taste and texture :(

    1. How sad! I usually use the Soyaking brand instead of tofutti brand because it uses whole soybeans not soy protein. However I definitely prefer the smoother taste of the tofutti.
