Steps:
- Insert a lollipop stick into the stem end of each apple.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
- Add the sugar, water, and corn syrup to a medium saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then cook until the temperature reaches 300°F (150°C), about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the red food coloring.
- Dip the apples in the syrup to coat entirely, then set on the prepared baking sheet. Let cool until the candy hardens, about 5 minutes.
- Add the green candy melts to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on low power in 20-second intervals, stirring between, until melted. Stir in the canola oil until smooth. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a squeeze bottle. Let cool for 5 minutes more, or until the candy sets quickly when squeezed out of the bottle.
- Use the melted candy to draw eyes and a mouth on each apple, then outline the rest of the apple above the very bottom and fill in the space outside the eyes and mouth.
- Let set for 10-15 minutes, until completely hardened.
- Enjoy!

[email protected]These apples were a disaster! The candy melts were too thick and the apples were too soft. I would not recommend this recipe.

[email protected]These apples were a little bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would recommend using a dark chocolate candy melt instead of a milk chocolate candy melt.
