Zubereitung von Candy Apples
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 cup light corn syrup, 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring gently and constantly, until the mixture reaches the firm-ball stage (240-245°F on a candy thermometer). This means a small amount of the mixture forms a firm ball when dropped into a glass of ice water.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly, about 5-10 minutes, until it's slightly less hot but still pourable.
- Prepare your apples by inserting wooden skewers or lollipop sticks into the tops of 6-8 medium apples.
- Dip each apple into the candy mixture, twirling gently to coat evenly. Use a spoon to ensure all parts of the apple are covered.
- Optional: Immediately after dipping, roll the apples in chopped nuts (e.g., peanuts, pecans), sprinkles, or shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
- Place the candy apples on wax paper to cool and set completely. This will take approximately 30-45 minutes.
