Gooey Caramel Apples

Ingredients:
  • 5 Apples (I used Golden Delicious and Ida Red)
  • 1 (14 ounce) package individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped
  • 5 wooden sticks
  • 2 Tablespoons of milk
Directions:
  1. Press a craft stick into the top of each apple. Line a baking sheet with non-stick aluminum foil and lightly spray with non-stick spray.
  2. Place caramels and milk in a microwave safe bowl, and microwave 2 minutes, stirring once. Allow to cool briefly.
  3. Roll each apple quickly in caramel sauce until well coated.  Using spoon method also. Place on prepared sheet to set.  Store in fridge.
(Note:  After sticking sticks in apple, I put them uncoated in the fridge for like 20 minutes, the caramel seems to stick better to cold apples)
(Also, the apples used were picked from an orchard, if you purchase yours from a store, be sure to wash off any waxy coating them may have on them.)
