Yield 30 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

30 mini apples
40 individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped
8 tablespoons milk
1 1/4 packages chocolate candy melts (recommended: Wilton Chocolate)

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Remove the stem from each apple and press a wooden stick into the top. Put the caramels and milk in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 4 minutes, stirring once. Add more time in 30 second increments, if needed.

Found this keeper in the Family Fun magazine. I loved making it with the kids and they loved being creative. Use your imagination and your favorite toppings for this great snack. You will need a package of lollipop sticks and a melon baller and small paper candy cups (or cupcake paper) for this recipe. One Granny Smith apple makes approximately 8 mini apples.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Nonstick cooking spray
6 small apples (about 2 1/2 inches in diameter)
1 pound caramel candies, unwrapped
3 tablespoons heavy cream
Rounded 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
Colorful sanding sugar, sprinkles, shredded coconut or finely chopped toasted nuts for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray.
  • Wash the apples well, then dry them thoroughly. Insert candy apple sticks into the stem end of the apples.
  • Combine the caramels, cream and salt in a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly melted and smooth, 7 to 8 minutes.
