Equipment
popsicle sticks
Ingredients
4-5Granny Smith apples, large sized
10oncesBrach's Milk Maid Caramels, unwrapped
6graham crackers, regular sized blended into crumbs
10ounceswhite chocolate melting wafers, I use Ghiradelli
Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper to set apples after dipping.
Melt caramel according to package directions.
While the caramel melts, wash and dry apples then pierce apples with a popsicle stick.
Dip your apples in the caramel, place on prepared baking sheet and allow to set. Once set, trim any excess caramel on the bottom with scissors.
Cut about 1/8 of each marshmallow off the bottom. Then stick 2 of them on top of each apple to create the ears. If you don’t want to make the Disney version, leave these off.
Melt white chocolate melting wafers according to package directions and process graham crackers into crumbs using a food processor. Set aside graham crackers in large shallow bowl.
Dip each caramel apple into the white chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
Place caramel apple into the bowl of graham cracker crumbs. Allow to set in the bowl a minute and then press the graham crackers onto the sides.
Sprinkle the top half with cinnamon sugar then place on parchment paper to set.
Notes
Mickey Mouse candy apple: Dip entire apple in melted semi-sweet chocolate, allow to set. Dip 1-inch of the bottom half of apple into melted white chocolate then sprinkle the white chocolate portion with red sprinkles. Add two yellow jelly beans for the buttons.
I often use Peter's Caramel for this recipe but it comes in a large quantity so if you only need caramel for this recipe, Brach's and Kraft are easily found at the grocery store.
