CARAMEL MARSHMALLOW APPLES

Steps:

• Place wax paper on a baking sheet and spray with non stick spray.
• Combine caramels, marshmallows, and water in medium pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until caramels melt.
• Remove from heat and cool slightly.
• Dip in caramel mixture and place on prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate till firm.
• Can be drizzle with melted chocolate or rolled in chopped nuts, marshmallows, M&M's--use your imagination. I sometimes use candy corn at Halloween. Grandchildren love these.

MARSHMALLOW CEREAL CARAMEL APPLES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
• Add the water and sugar to a medium saucepan. Cook over high heat, without stirring (so the mixture doesn't crystallize), for about 10 minutes, until the mixture begins to turn golden brown. Note: Use a larger pan than you think you need; the caramel will bubble up when you add the cream.
• Reduce the heat to low. Slowly pour in a little bit of the heavy cream. The mixture will bubble. When it begins to recede, carefully whisk to incorporate the cream. Continue adding the cream in increments, stirring to incorporate.
• Once the cream is incorporated, stir in the salt. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 10-12 minutes more, until the caramel reaches 250°F (120°C) on an instant read thermometer. Remove the pot from the heat and let the caramel cool for about 5 minutes.
• Carefully transfer the caramel to a heatproof liquid measuring cup or bowl. Stir in the marshmallow cream until mostly incorporated.
• Stick a popsicle stick though the top of each apple, about ⅔ of the way through.
• Dip an apple into the caramel until completely coated. Lift the apple from the caramel and spin the stick for 20-30 seconds to remove excess caramel. Roll the apple in the marshmallow cereal and place upright on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining apples.
• Serve the apples immediately, or let set at room temperature for 1 hour. Leftover caramel apples will keep, loosely covered, in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
• Enjoy!

CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Add the sugar, corn syrup and 1/2 cup water to a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir a few times before the sugar begins to boil to combine the ingredients. Attach a candy thermometer to the inside of the pan and bring the syrup to a boil. Cook until the syrup begins to turn an amber color, then swirl the syrup to even out the color. Continue to cook until the syrup is a deep amber and the thermometer reads between 375 and 380 degrees F, then remove from the heat. Carefully pour in the cream and gently whisk to combine. Stir in the butter, vanilla and a pinch of salt until smooth. Keep off the heat but keep the thermometer attached to the pan.
• Pierce the apples through the stem ends about halfway through with candy apple sticks. Line a baking sheet with parchment and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• When the temperature of the caramel reads around 190 degrees F, dip an apple, using the stick as a handle and swirling to coat completely. Allow excess caramel to drip off the bottom and use a spatula to help remove any large amount of caramel, as it will pool around the apple when you set it down to cool on the lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining apples, gently heating the caramel on the stovetop over low heat, stirring, if it gets too thick for dipping. Allow the caramel to set and cool completely before serving or wrapping apples, about 1 hour. (See Cook's Note.)

PERFECT CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Mix 2 cups sugar, 1/4 cup light corn syrup and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring just until the sugar dissolves. Cook, swirling the pan (do not stir), until the mixture is light amber and a candy thermometer registers 320 degrees, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; slowly whisk in 1/2 cup heavy cream, then 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Return to low heat and whisk until smooth. Let cool until the caramel is thick enough to coat a spoon. Insert sticks into the stem ends of 6 apples and dip the apples into the caramel, letting the excess drip off. Roll in toppings if desired, then let cool on a parchment-lined baking sheet coated with cooking spray.

THE BEST CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Dip apples in boiling water for a few seconds, then dry with paper towels to remove any wax from the peels. Set apples aside; when completely cool, insert a wooden chopstick firmly into the bottom of each apple for a handle.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Stir butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and sweetened condensed milk together in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until a candy thermometer reads 248 degrees F (120 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes; stir constantly to prevent burning. A teaspoon of the syrup, dropped in a glass of cold water, should form a firm ball. Remove caramel from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
• Working quickly, dip each apple into the hot caramel to completely coat the apple and about 1/2 inch of the wooden handle. Sprinkle apples with any desired toppings while still hot. Let caramel apples cool on the parchment paper. Use caution, caramel is very hot.

CARAMEL MARSHMALLOW TREATS

Steps:

• Line two baking sheets with waxed paper; set aside. In a large saucepan, cook and stir the milk, caramels and butter over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat; stir in the cinnamon and vanilla., Place Rice Krispies in a shallow bowl. With a toothpick, dip each marshmallow into warm caramel mixture; turn to coat. Press bottoms into Rice Krispies; place treats on prepared pans. Let stand until set.

S'MORES CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Wash and dry the apples and remove their stems. Insert a small stick into each apple. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat with cooking spray. Put the caramel bits in a saucepan with 2 tablespoons water and heat on medium-low, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth. Holding the stick, dip each apple into the caramel and place on the prepared baking sheet. Chill until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Put the marshmallow creme in a microwave-safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds until smooth, warm and puffed. Stir well. Dip each apple into the marshmallow mixture and return to the baking sheet. Transfer to the refrigerator to set, about 15 minutes. Put the graham crackers crumbs in a bowl and set aside. Put the almond bark pieces in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until completely melted and smooth. Dip each marshmallow-coated caramel apple in the chocolate, and then in the graham cracker crumbs. Return to the baking sheet until set.
