EASY CARAMEL APPLES
I was thinking about this when making caramel apples the other day and thought I would share with everyone here. :) NOTE: You can also substitute the caramel for peanut butter instead for a healthier version for the kidlets.

Steps:
- 1. Cut your apples in half. Remove stems.
- 2. Hollow out each half by coring and shaving away some of the inner apple. (I use a muffin tin to help balance.)
- 3. Fill with warmed caramel. (You can use homemade or you can use store-bought and microwave it in 15 second intervals until warmed.)
- 4. Let the caramel cool and harden. Once completely cooled, cut apples into slice and serve.
EASY CARAMEL-ISH DIP FOR APPLES
This is a great dip for parties, showers, and tailgating. You can put it together at practically the last minute, although you might want to cut the apples into slices and dip them in a baggie of lemon water (1 Tablespoon of lemon juice in 1 cup of water) ahead of time, if you aren't able to cut the apples just as you need them....

Steps:
- Wash and thoroughly dry your apples. Stick a skewer into the end of each apple, making sure not to pierce your hand. (Don't ask)! Melt the caramels in a microwave safe bowl for thirty seconds at a time, until they are fully melted. Add the milk to slightly thin the caramel, stir well. Dip each apple into the caramel, using a spoon to coat it, if necessary. Let the apple set on a piece of wax paper to firm up a little bit for at least 10 or 15 minutes. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Use firm, crisp apples that will hold their shape when coated in caramel.
- Wash and dry the apples thoroughly before dipping them in the caramel.
- If you want a smooth caramel coating, use a candy thermometer to ensure that the caramel reaches the correct temperature.
- Dip the apples in the caramel one at a time, and turn them to coat evenly.
- Place the coated apples on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and let them cool completely.
- For a fun twist, try dipping the apples in melted chocolate or nuts before coating them in caramel.
- You can also add a sprinkle of sea salt to the caramel for a sweet and salty treat.
- Caramel apples can be stored in the refrigerator 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, you can create a delicious and festive snack that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a fun and easy dessert, give caramel apples a try.
