Description

Delight in layers of caramelized apples and creamy whipped topping, all drizzled with sweet caramel sauce in these delicious dessert cups.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups peeled and chopped apples
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 4 cups whipped cream
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, watching carefully to prevent browning.
  2. Add the chopped apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon to the skillet. Stir occasionally until the apples soften and caramelize, approximately 8-10 minutes.
  3. Cool the mixture slightly before layering.
  4. Start with a layer of caramelized apples in dessert cups, followed by a dollop of whipped cream, repeating until cups are full.
  5. Drizzle caramel sauce over the tops of the cups.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let flavors mingle.

Notes

Make the caramelized apples a day in advance for convenience. Avoid overcooking the apples to maintain texture.
