So, again still have quite a few apples to use up and the idea struck.
Caramel Apples!!!
Mmmmmmm......
I hadn't made these, like ever!
And they are SO good and easy!
No need to pay $5 at Rocky Mountain Chocolate!
Also, I didn't want to go buy and un-wrap caramel candies, so I found and used a recipe for homemade caramel.
(It's SO easy and now I can make it for other recipes! Woohoo!!!)
Here it is
2 sticks butter
2 c. brown sugar
1 c. light corn syrup
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 1/2 tbsp. vanilla
Stir and melt the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup and condensed milk in a pan (medium-high).
Let mixture come to a boil and stop stirring.
Once mixture reaches between the Soft Ball stage and Hard Ball, remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
After a few minutes it will thicken up and be perfect for dipping your apples.
I also had melted some chocolate almond bark and swirled the chocolate over top then rolled in chopped peanuts and sprinkles.
The possibilities are endless!
And delicious!
Happy Monday!!!
those look delicious!
