Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup corn syrup
• 0.5 cup sweetened condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 4 pieces apples (for serving, optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Step 2

Once the butter has melted, add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and corn syrup. Stir until the sugars dissolve and the mixture is well combined.

Step 3

Slowly pour in the sweetened condensed milk, stirring constantly to prevent the mixture from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly and reaches a temperature of about 220°F (105°C) on a candy thermometer. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt. Mix until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Allow the taffy dip to cool slightly for 2-3 minutes. It should still be warm and gooey but not too hot to serve.

Step 7

Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately alongside sliced apples or your favorite dipping fruits.

Step 8

Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop before serving.
