Caramel Apples

Three bags of caramel bits covered 15 large granny smith apples


Apples
Sticks
Caramel Bits
Water
Parchment Paper

Toppings:

White Chocolate Melts
Chocolate Melts
Toffee bits
Sprinkles
mini chocolate chips
mini m&m's

I used organic apples (hoping there would be less wax to have to wash off). I soaked the apples in cool water with baking soda for 15 minutes to remove any wax and clean them. The caramel will stick better with cold clean apples. I refrigerated the apples overnight.

Insert small skewer type sticks into the center of the apples when ready to dip and decorate.

Melt caramel bits according to package directions. When caramel is melted, tip bowl or pot forward so all the caramel pools together. Rotate the apple into the caramel, coating it.

Place coated apples on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Decorate as desired.

If you want to melt chocolate and coat or drizzle on top of the caramel, wait until caramel is set. Place apples in the fridge until the caramel is hard and hot melted chocolate will stick better.
