Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Insert one wooden pop stick (from bag of caramels) into stem end of each apple. Cover large plate with waxed paper; spray with cooking spray. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Place caramel bits in medium saucepan. Add water; cook on medium-low heat 3 min. or until caramel bits are completely melted, stirring constantly.

  3. Step 3

    Dip apples into melted caramel until evenly coated, spooning caramel over apples if necessary. Allow excess caramel to drip off. Scrape bottoms of apples; place on prepared plate. Refrigerate at least 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator 15 min. before serving. Store any leftover apples in refrigerator.

Recipe Tips
  • Wash and dry apples thoroughly before dipping into melted caramels so that the caramel sticks to the apples.

  • Place caramel bits and water in medium microwaveable bowl. Microwave on HIGH 2 min.; stir until caramel bits are completely melted.

  • Roll freshly dipped caramel apples in 1/2 cup chopped cocktail peanuts. Place on prepared plate and continue as directed.

  • Melt 2 oz. BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate. Drizzle over freshly dipped apples; place on prepared plate. Continue as directed.
