Comment préparer Gourmet Caramel Apples
- Wash and thoroughly dry 6 medium apples. Remove any wax coating by rubbing each apple with a clean cloth.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, 1/4 cup water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Microwave on high for 2 minutes, then stir. Continue microwaving in 1-minute intervals, stirring after each interval, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is a smooth amber color (about 5-7 minutes total).
- Remove from microwave and carefully stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream (be cautious of splattering). Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Insert craft sticks into the tops of the apples.
- Dip each apple into the caramel, coating evenly. Allow excess caramel to drip off.
- Immediately place the dipped apples on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
- Optional: Drizzle with melted chocolate or sprinkle with chopped nuts, sprinkles, or sea salt.
- Let the caramel set completely (about 30 minutes) before wrapping in cellophane (if desired). To prevent sticking, coat apples with a layer of candy coating before wrapping.
- Add decorative tags and curling ribbon for a beautiful presentation.
