JELLO SHOTS: CARAMEL APPLE



Jello Shots: Caramel Apple image

This is one of the most fun ways to make (and serve) Jello shots, where you do not need plastic shot glasses... you just eat the entire thing. Be careful tho, once I took these to an "adult" Christmas party, and we found a few of their grand-kids chomping on them... YIKES!!! Keep in mind that these take quite a bit of time to carefully hollow out the apples, but well worth it. They are so cute after being sliced and plated. Everyone who enjoys a caramel apple will love these. (I guess they can be made without the alcohol for a kid friendly version, maybe just using 1/4 c water and a few tablespoons of caramel sauce to replace the butterscotch schnapps or caramel vodka. I've never tried). Hope you enjoy them. (NOTE: Cook time includes refrigeration time).

Time 5h

Yield 48 shots, 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 -8 granny smith apples
1/2 cup whole milk (I'm sure you could use 1% or 2%)
1/2 cup cold water
1 (3/4 ounce) envelope hot chocolate powder (WITHOUT marshmallows)
1 (1/4 ounce) envelope of knox unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 -4 drops yellow food coloring
1/2 cup butterscotch schnapps (your favourite brand) or 1/2 cup caramel vodka (I use Smirnoff Kissed Caramel vodka)
1/4 cup lemon juice (to prevent browning of apples)

Steps:

  • In medium sauce pan, whisk together the cold water and hot chocolate envelope until no clumps are visible. DO NOT heat yet.
  • Once mixed thoroughly, sprinkle the envelope of Knox gelatin over the top and LET IT SIT, DO NOT STIR for 2 minutes.
  • Turn your stove top burner to a medium low setting and completely mix in the gelatin, then the milk and sugar. Slowly bring the mixture to a low simmer a few minutes just until the sugar is dissolved. At this point you can start adding the food coloring to the color you like.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and let sit until room warm. Meanwhile, place lemon juice in a small bowl (I only use approx 1/4 cup), and prep the apples by slicing each in half from stem to bottom (DO NOT peel). Using the smaller end of a melon scoop (if you have the size option), carefully hollow out the inside of the apples, to where you only have approx 1/4 " outer shell, being careful not to get to close to the outer peel. While carving each apple, dip the hollowed halves in a dish of lemon juice to coat the rim of the apples to prevent browning (you will not taste it). Place each hollowed out half in muffin tins.
  • Once the mixture is just warm, you can now stir in the Butterscotch Schnapps or Caramel Vodka (I prefer the Smirnoff Kissed Caramel vodka). Either will work and there are many brands of both available. Mix well.
  • Pour enough jello mixture into each hollowed apple shell, being sure that they are level in the muffin tins. Fill to the tops of each. Place in fridge for a minimum of 4 hours (I have even made them the night before I take them somewhere, without slicing the wedges, and just trimmed the rim of the halved apples if they had browned).
  • Once set, remove apples from muffin tins and slice each half into 3-4 wedges (depending on the size of your apples). Plate them on whatever tray you plan to serve on and return, loosely covered, to the fridge. (TIP: It is best to cut them just before serving, since the freshly cut edges will brown).
  • Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your caramel apples a more complex flavor. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
  • Use high-quality caramel. This will make a big difference in the taste of your caramel apples. Look for a caramel that is thick, creamy, and flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the caramel. If you overcook it, it will become hard and brittle. Cook it just until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Be careful when dipping the apples in the caramel. The caramel is very hot, so be sure to hold the apple by the stem. Also, be careful not to let the apple sit in the caramel for too long, or it will become too soft.
  • Let the caramel apples cool completely before serving. This will allow the caramel to harden and become firm.
  • Store the caramel apples in a cool, dry place. They will keep for up to two weeks.

Conclusion:

Caramel apples are a classic fall treat that is easy to make at home. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create delicious caramel apples that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a fun and festive treat, give caramel apples a try.
