How to Make Linda's Caramel Apple Delights

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Wash and thoroughly dry the apples.
  2. Gently remove the stem from each apple. Insert a craft stick into the top of each apple, pushing it almost all the way through.
  3. Lightly butter a large baking sheet.
  4. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unwrapped caramels and milk. Microwave on high for 3-4 minutes, or until the caramels are completely melted, stirring every minute to prevent burning. Let the caramel cool slightly (about 2-3 minutes) until it’s slightly thickened.
  5. Dip each apple into the caramel, rotating to coat completely. Allow excess caramel to drip off.
  6. Immediately roll the caramel-coated apples in your choice of chopped nuts, candy bars, or candy pieces.
  7. Place the coated apples on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the caramel to set completely before serving. You can also bake for 10-12 minutes at 250°F (120°C) for extra-shiny and crisp caramel.
