Ingredients

Scale

Fruit

  • 3 large Granny Smith apples
  • 18 green grapes

Dippers

  • 18 pretzel sticks
  • 13 salted pretzel twists
  • 5 chocolate wafer cookie sticks, halved
  • 7 graham crackers, broken into fourths
  • 18 vanilla wafers cookies

Dips

  • 3/4 cup caramel topping
  • 3/4 cup fudge topping
  • 3/4 cup marshmallow topping

Toppings

  • 1/4 cup crushed toffee bits
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup fall themed sprinkles
  • 1/4 cup chopped nut topping
  • 1/4 cup crushed Oreos (about 3 cookies)
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup marshmallow bits
  • 1/4 cup mini M&Ms (orange, yellow and brown)
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon-sugar blend

Instructions

  1. Prepare Apples: Slice the Honeycrisp and Granny Smith apples into thin wedges and toss them with a little lemon juice to prevent browning. Pat the slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture before arranging them on the serving board.
  2. Create Grape Dippers: Insert a pretzel stick into the top of each green grape to create fun grape dippers that add a crunchy twist to the fruit platter.
  3. Set Up Dips: Pour the caramel, fudge, and marshmallow toppings into separate mini fondue pots and place them in the center of the board. Light tealight candles beneath each pot to gently melt the dips and keep them warm throughout serving.
  4. Arrange Components: Neatly arrange the apple slices around the fondue pots. Place the salted pretzel twists and chocolate wafer cookie sticks in mini jars positioned on opposite sides of the board for easy access.
  5. Add Toppings and Fillers: Distribute all the assorted toppings such as toffee bits, mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, nuts, crushed Oreos, shredded coconut, marshmallow bits, mini M&Ms, and cinnamon-sugar blend in small bowls placed around the edge of the board.
  6. Fill the Board: Fill any remaining spaces on the board with graham crackers, vanilla wafer cookies, and the pretzel-grape dippers to create a full and inviting presentation.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Light the tealights to maintain warm dips, invite guests to dip and combine flavors as they please, and enjoy this seasonal, interactive treat together.
