Description
Chocolate Covered Caramel Apple Slices: Crisp apples layered with gooey caramel and rich chocolate for bite-sized, party-friendly treats.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best)
- 1 cup caramel candies (or homemade caramel)
- 1 tbsp milk
- 1 cup chocolate chips (dark, milk, or semi-sweet)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
- Toppings: crushed nuts, mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, or crushed cookies
Instructions
- Slice apples into thick rounds or wedges, removing any seeds. Pat dry with a paper towel.
- Melt caramel with milk in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
- Insert popsicle sticks or skewers into apple slices for easy dipping.
- Dip each slice halfway into caramel, then place on a parchment-lined tray. Chill 10 minutes to set.
- Melt chocolate with coconut oil until smooth. Dip caramel-coated slices halfway into chocolate.
- Immediately sprinkle with your choice of toppings.
- Chill another 10–15 minutes until firm. Enjoy fresh!
Notes
- For extra smooth caramel, heat in short 20-second bursts and stir between intervals.
- Use parchment-lined trays to prevent sticking.
- If using store-bought caramel, microwave in short intervals until smooth.
- Refrigerate briefly to speed setting if needed.
- Insert sticks toward the center of the slices to avoid breaking the apple.
- Best served the same day for optimal texture.
