Ingredients
- 5 Apples Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples
- 2 bags Soft and chewy caramel candy 11 oz. bags each, Melted
- 5 cups Chocolate chips
- ½ cup Edible pearls Golden
- 5 Wooden lollipop sticks
- Green craft paper leaves
Instructions
- Wash your apples and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Push wooden lollipop sticks into each apple.
- Now, melt caramel in the microwave or a saucepan. Remember to use a deep bowl, which makes it easier for dipping.
- Dip apples, one at a time, in the bowl of melted caramel.
- Place them on a cookie tray lined with wax paper.
- Place tray in the fridge for 15 minutes so that the caramel sets up a bit.
- Remove tray from fridge and cover all the apples with chocolate chips. Fill any gaps with golden edible pearls.
- Place the tray in the fridge again and let the caramel and chocolate chips set for 30-45 minutes.
- Prior to serving, stick a small craft paper leaf on top of each apple. You will just have to push the leaves in slightly and they will stick to the caramel. Enjoy!
Notes
- Wash apples very well to remove that waxy residue or you can just use organic apples which don't have a super waxy layer.
- Dry apples thoroughly with kitchen towels to remove all water droplets to ensure chocolate sticks properly.
- Depending on the size of your fruit, you may need more or less caramel sauce and melted chocolate.
- You can scroll up and read additional tips above within the post if you have never made these before.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator and try to finish them off within 3 days.
