Perfect for a party or easy dessert, this Easy Candy Dip has only 3 ingredients! Added bonus: you can use up all that Halloween candy to make it.
You’ll love this dip. It’s a Skinny Candy Dip, filled with chopped leftover Halloween candy. And it only has 3 ingredients!
Sometimes, when Jordan has friends over, I want to make a treat that will keep my reputation of the “Mom that gives us dessert!” going but I also want to serve something that the parents won’t hate me for (too much). Dips are the perfect thing to serve for this reason – they’re fast, easy, and they feed a crowd. Bonus points if you can dip apple slices in it!
While many of the sweet dips I make are easy (like brownie batter, peanut butter, and Snickers), this one has 3 ingredients, one of which you can totally omit…if you want. Ready for it?
How to make Candy Dip
- Greek Yogurt – Plain, vanilla, nonfat, full fat, use your favorite. The dip tastes like whatever yogurt you use so use the brand and flavor you like.
- Caramel Sauce – Use store bought ice cream topping or my 3 ingredient caramel or homemade caramel or even 5 minute salted caramel.
- Candy – use your favorite, clean out the Halloween bucket or pantry.
This recipe is the perfect one to use up extra Halloween candy. Make it for Thanksgiving or Christmas or New Year’s. Make it for a football party or an after school play date. Heck, make it for a random Tuesday snack!
We dipped pretzels and apple slices. And by that, I mean I ate it with a spoon.
Expert Tips
I used nonfat vanilla greek yogurt. You can use regular vanilla yogurt (that’s not greek) if you prefer. You can also use plain yogurt, but then you might want to add more caramel topping for sweetness.
Speaking of caramel topping, you can totally leave it out if you don’t want it there, but I love adding it for a touch of extra flavor. You can use any caramel sauce you have – homemade or ice cream topping, even sugar-free.
Use any chopped candy you have! Raid the Halloween stash! I used Milky Way, 3 Musketeers, and Snickers because it was what I had. This would also be good with peanut butter cups or Kit Kats.
Candy Dip Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup fat-free vanilla greek yogurt non-greek can be substituted
- 2 tablespoons caramel sauce regular or sugar-free
- 1 cup chopped candy such as Snickers or Milky Way
Instructions
- Stir together yogurt and caramel sauce. Stir in candy. Serve with pretzels, small cookies, crackers, or apple slices.
- If you want to use plain greek yogurt, you can, but you will need to add more caramel sauce to taste.
- If you don’t like greek yogurt, you can use regular vanilla. I recommend low or fat-free!
- Use any chopped candy you like: Snickers, Milky Way, Kit Kat, Reese’s, etc. Just clean out your Halloween candy!
I’m not great at decorating, either. That’s why we bought a model home – already done! Hey, this dip looks soooo good!
You always look great; just flash that smile and no one will care if you have lipstick or a necklace on. And the dip looks great too!

What a great idea for a dip! I am the least stylish person I know…I rely on sneakers, jeans, khakis and comfortable pants most of the time. No makeup (allergic), but I’m ok with it.
SUCH a GREAT idea for leftover Halloween candy!! IF I have any 😉 I’m totally making this dip! Also, I am 100% completely unable to style/decorate/coordinate anything having to do with clothing, accessories, makeup, hair, or home. I’m a wannabe DIY’er who ends up with items that look like a 3 year old made them. Sad face!
“I can go from prepping my recipes to shooting my recipes and I don’t even have to do any setting up….” <— Totally jealous! I can see how great the light is too right where you're cooking/prepping so you don't even have to walk across the room either! That is awesome!
And a skinny dip is perfect!
Thanks Averie!
