Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Granny Smith apples
- 6 pieces Wooden popsicle sticks
- 300 grams Caramel candies
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1.5 cups Chopped Snickers bars
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup White chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons Vegetable oil
- 1 sheet Parchment paper
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the apples to ensure the caramel adheres properly. Insert a popsicle stick into the top (stem end) of each apple.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel candies and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth (approximately 2-3 minutes).
Hold each apple by the stick and dip it into the melted caramel, rotating to coat evenly. Allow excess caramel to drip off, then place the apple on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with all apples.
While the caramel is still slightly tacky, press the chopped Snickers pieces onto the caramel surface of each apple. Place the apples in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to set.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel apples using a spoon or piping bag.
Repeat the melting process with the white chocolate chips and remaining teaspoon of vegetable oil. Drizzle the white chocolate over the apples for contrast.
Return the apples to the refrigerator for an additional 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
Serve the Snickers Caramel Apples immediately or store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
