Total Time:

Ingredients:

4 to 5 md. apples
4 to 5 wooden sticks
1 pkg. (14 oz.) caramels
2 tbsp. water

Directions:

Wash and dry apples; insert stick into stem end of each apple. Microwave caramels and water in small, deep, microwave-safe bowl on high for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes or until sauce is smooth, stirring after each minute. If caramel sauce is too thin, let stand about two minutes before dipping apples.

Dip apples into hot caramel sauce; turn until coated. Scrape excess sauce from bottom of apples. Place on greased wax paper. Decorate with candy, if desired. Serve immediately or store in refrigerator for up to two days. Let stand at room temperature 15 minutes before serving to allow caramel to soften.

Comments from Kathleen Morrison :

Conventional method:
Wash and dry apples; insert stick into stem end of each apple. Melt caramel with water in 1-1/2 quart heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth. Continue as above.

For some variation, you could substitute pears for apples. Other possibilities: Add 2 tbsp. creamy peanut butter with caramels, and water, roll in chopped peanuts. Or, dip caramel-coated apples in chopped nuts or flaked coconut.
