Make Your Own Gourmet Caramel Apples
Is there any better combo than caramel and a crisp apple? Perhaps add a little sea salt, or chocolate on there, and you've got a bonafide, autumn treat! Slice and share with your friends at Friendsgiving and everyone will most certainly be giving thanks.
HOW TO DIY
Ingredients:
Apples
2 11 oz. bags of caramels
3 Tbls. heavy whipping cream
Sticks
Toppings (I used sea salt, chocolate chips, and crushed walnuts)
Directions:
1. Wash your apples and dry thoroughly. If there is any water left on them, the caramel will slip right off. Stab the sticks into the tops of the apples until secure. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and set apples on top.
2. Using a medium sized sauce pan, melt the caramels on medium-low heat. Stir in the heavy whipping cream. Once the caramel is melted, turn down the heat to low.
3. Swirl apples in caramel until coated. Let the excess caramel drip off back into the pan. Either roll the apples in desired toppings, or press on using your fingers. Let apples dry on parchment paper until your finished with all apples, then refrigerate until ready to serve. Slice up and enjoy!
