Rated by 1 member
Directions:
Prepare your apples by inserting the skewers firmly into the
center. Place on a cookie sheet on top of parchment or waxed
paper. In a saucepan, combine water, corn syrup and sugar. Stir
with a wooden spoon. Allow to gently cook over a medium heat
until caramel in color. Remove from heat and stir in the cream,
butter and salt. Working quickly with the bone-dry apples, dip
them into the caramel, then roll quickly in the nuts. Place
them on the tray and continue until all apples are coated.
Refrigerate for 15 minutes until firm and serve or wrap in
cellophane bag.
Serves 4.
