Ingredients
  

2 medium-sized apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and diced

1 cup caramel sauce (can be store-bought or homemade)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 cup crushed graham crackers

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

½ cup whipped topping (or whipped cream)

¼ cup chopped pecans (optional, for added crunch)

Extra caramel sauce for drizzling (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples: In a medium mixing bowl, toss the diced apples with the lemon juice and ground cinnamon. Pour in half of the caramel sauce and stir until the apples are well-coated. Allow the mixture to marinate for about 10 minutes, letting the flavors meld.

    Make the Graham Cracker Base: In another bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers with the melted butter. Stir until the mixture is well combined and has a texture similar to damp sand.

      Assemble the Cups: In individual serving cups or glasses, begin layering the ingredients. Start with a generous tablespoon of the graham cracker mixture, pressing it lightly into the bottom to create a firm base.

        Add Apple Mixture: Spoon a layer of the caramel-coated apple mixture over the graham cracker base, distributing the apples evenly among all cups.

          Add Whipped Topping: Place a dollop of whipped topping on top of the apples in each cup, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon for an even surface.

            Final Layer: Repeat the layering process by adding another layer of the graham cracker mixture, then follow with additional caramel-coated apples to finish each cup.

              Garnish and Drizzle: If desired, sprinkle the chopped pecans on top for a delightful crunch. Drizzle extra caramel sauce over the pecans for an indulgent touch.

                Chill: For optimal flavor and to help the layers set, place the assembled cups in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

                  Serve: After chilling, remove the cups from the refrigerator and serve them chilled. Enjoy your delicious No-Bake Caramel Apple Pie Cups!
