1
Melt caramel in the microwave.I used the caramel bits, Add water to the caramel bits (or candies if you're using them).
-
2
2 tablespoons of water per bag of caramel bits or candies.
-
3
Zap it in the microwave for approx.
-
4
3 minutes.
-
5
Stir after each minute, and stop heating it as soon as it's all melted.
-
6
Dip the apples in caramel.You can spoon some of the caramel on, too.
-
7
Lift the apple out of the caramel and let the excess drip off.
-
8
I scrape the bottom with a spoon, too.
-
9
The caramel will continue to drip down, and will pool on the pan some as it hardens.
-
10
So, scrape some off of the bottom now to keep too much caramel from building up at the bottom.
-
11
Roll the apples in chopped nuts, candies, or cookies.
-
12
Use your hand to press the goodies in and help them stay in place.
-
13
Place the apples on waxed paper or aluminum foil that's been greased or coated with cooking spray.
-
14
As some of the caramel drifts down and pools on the bottom, it will take these toppings with it.
-
15
So, you may need to go back and gently pull the toppings back up and pat them back into the caramel.
-
16
I ended up doing this a few times.
-
17
Eventually the caramel hardens enough that everything stays put.
-
18
Melt chocolate chips (or other flavored chips).
-
19
Drizzle the apples with melted chocolate or other flavors.
