Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Granny Smith apples
- 300 grams Caramel candies
- 2 tablespoons Sweetened condensed milk
- 100 grams Marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 6 pieces Wooden sticks
- 1 cup Toppings (optional, such as crushed nuts or sprinkles)
Instructions
Wash and dry the apples thoroughly, then remove the stems. Insert a wooden stick into the bottom of each apple, pushing it halfway through.
In a medium saucepan, combine the caramel candies, sweetened condensed milk, and 2 tablespoons of water. Heat over low-medium heat, stirring continuously, until the caramel is fully melted and smooth. Be careful not to let it scorch.
In a separate heatproof bowl, melt the marshmallows over a double boiler or in the microwave in short 10-second bursts, stirring between intervals, until completely smooth.
Dip one apple into the melted caramel, tilting the pan slightly to ensure the apple is fully coated. Allow the excess caramel to drip off before dipping it into the melted marshmallows, swirling gently to create a marbled effect.
If desired, immediately roll the coated apple in toppings like crushed nuts or sprinkles while the coating is still sticky.
Place the finished apple on a sheet of parchment paper to set. Repeat the process with the remaining apples.
Allow the caramel and marshmallow coating to cool and harden completely before serving, about 30 minutes. For best results, serve within the same day.
