Caramel Covered Apples

Caramel Covered Apples make a wonderful Halloween treat and are very easy to make!

Ingredients:

40 - Caramel cubes (we prefer the Borden Brand)
5 Apples (We like Macintosh)
1 Tablespoon of water
5 Wooden sticks
1 Wax paper

Directions:

Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Remove stems and Insert the wooden sticks into the stem hole until about half the stick is in the apple.
In a small saucepan, over low heat, melt the caramels with the water, stirring constantly until smooth.
Now dip the apples into the hot caramel sauce, coating the apple completely. Place on greased, wax paper.

Storage & Serving: Store your caramel covered apples in the refrigerator.

Before serving, remove them from the refrigerator and allow them to stand for about fifteen minutes.

We like to serve our caramel covered apples on a large black platter and use extra caramels as a garnish.

Halloween Recipes

Cooking Tips:

Making a Roux: When making a roux, you really have to take your time! Don't try and strart it when you are in a rush, as it does take time and patience to make a goood roux!

How to Make Your Beans Creamy: When your beans start to soften, mash some of them against the pan, and blend them into the rest. You may need to add more water if they get too thick.

Cooking Rice: When making rice, the normal ratio is 2 parts water to one cup of rice. I usually bring rice and water and about a teaspoon of butter or margarine to a boil, then stir, lower the heat to a low temperature, and cover the pot. Cook for about 15 minutes. Turn off heat and let set for about 5 minutes. Stir and enjoy!

Frying Potatoes: Before you fry potatoes, if you dry them off with a paper towel or clean cloth, it helps them to brown better, and cuts down on splattering.
