This is a super easy, fun, and simply a delicious treat for any occasion! You can decorate them with any type of topping you like. I suggest creating a dipping station. I used Chicago style popcorn, white and chocolate chips and toffee bits.
This recipe yields 12 caramel apples
What you need:
2 bags of melting caramel candies
4 Tbs. of heavy whipping cream
12 apples, green or red. Use your favorite!
Craft sticks
Your choice of topping
How To:
In a double boiler place two Tbs of heavy whipping cream and 1 bag of caramel. Heat on low until completely smooth (I suggest doing one bag of caramel at a time and adding any additional bags after each use)
While your caramel is melting, start removing the stems from you apples and stick your craft stick through the top of each apple.
Once the caramel is ready and briefly cooled for about 2 minutes, start dipping apples one at a time. It's best to turn the apples in the saucepan until it is completely covered in caramel. Once covered, hold the apple over the saucepan and scrape off any excess caramel with a spoon.
Roll apple in your topping and let set. (I used cupcake liners to place beneath the apples, you can also butter a baking sheet and let them set on there)
It is best to make the apples the same day that you'll be eating them.
Enjoy!!!
