Hot, Sticky, Sweetness.

It’s a Dentist dream and a Parent’s nightmare, the emulsion of burnt sugar, the color many people try to get on the beach, a caramel complexion of sorts that submerge an apple to its core. Caramel Apples are one of the many exciting treats that are made in its season. With a variety of different Apple’s to choose from, many wish to choose Granny Smith or Red Delicious because of their thick and crunchable features. Be very careful with this gooey delectability, though scrumptious it may be, it can also be rather messy. Many people get creative with this harvest fruit by rolling its caramel shell in popcorn, sprinkles, coconut, or drizzle it in chocholate. Then their are the simpletons who just cut the apple up and dip it in a dreamy mixture of pure caramel. Delight yourself with this chewy treat, for tis the season as they say, when Autumns charms are at bay!


Caramel Apple's
Scrumptious Ingredients:
1.   6 Apples (Red Delicious or Granny Smiths)
2.   1 (14 ounce) package individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped.
3.   2 Tablespoons of whole milk.
Toil of Troubles:
1.   Remove the stem from each apple and press a craft stick into the top. Butter a baking sheet.
2.   Place caramels and milk in a microwave safe bowl, and microwave 2 minutes, stirring once (or) if you would prefer, melt the caramel in a small double boiler. Allow to cool briefly.
3.   Roll each apple quickly in caramel sauce until well coated. Place on prepared sheet to set.
4.   Because of the gooeyness of the caramel coating, if you refrigerate the apples for 15 minutes, the caramel will form a settled shell over the apples, making it easier for them too eat.
... a dash of thought.
