Steps:
- To make Caramel Sauce: In large microwavable glass bowl, beat 1 cup sugar, the corn syrup, water and lemon juice. Microwave uncovered on High 5 to 7 minutes or until mixture turns a light golden color. Transfer to cooling rack for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in small microwavable bowl, microwave whipping cream uncovered on High about 30 seconds or until warm. Slowly pour on top of sauce in large bowl, beating constantly with whisk. Add vanilla and 1 tablespoon butter; beat to combine. Cool completely before using.
- To make Scones: Heat oven to 425°F. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.

- In small bowl, beat whipping cream and egg with whisk. Stir cream mixture into Bisquick mixture with wooden spoon until dough forms.

CARAMEL APPLES AND PEARS
Steps:
- Insert a licorice stick, cinnamon stick, or bamboo skewer into the stem end of each apple and pear. Spread the granola on a baking sheet; reserve. Have ready 1 or more cooling racks or a large sheet of parchment paper for cooling the caramel fruits.
- In a saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and water. Cook, stirring, until the sugar melts. Add the butter and cream, raise the heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the caramel registers 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool for 2 minutes.
- One at a time, dip the apples and pears in the caramel, twirling and swirling them to coat completely. Dip the tops in the granola to coat them, then transfer to the cooling rack or the parchment paper to cool. As the apples and pears cool, the caramel will set. Store the caramel apples and pears, wrapped in cellophane if desired, in a cool, dry place until ready to serve or up to 2 days.

APPLE PEAR SCONES
I love scones, but haven't tried this recipe. My mom clipped it out from a magazine awhile ago. Courtesy Rao's Coffee Roasting Company in Amherst, Massachusetts. Note: I just noticed the 22-28 minute baking time. In my experience with scones, that seems lengthy. I would watch the baking time.
