The Best Caramel Apples

Oct 14, 2003
I made these often when my son was growing up especially around Halloween time, and also for many birthday parties, they are actually quite easy to make and no caramels to unwrap, for me this has been the best recipe and I have tryed my share when my son was young --- you can sprinkle the outsides with nuts or with whatever you desire --- kids just love these!
8 -10 apples
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (no substitutes)
- 2 cups packed brown sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 8-10 wooden sticks
- 8-10 medium tart apples
Directions
1
In a heavy saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup and milk; bring to a boil over medium-high heat.2
Cook and stir until a candy thermometer reads 248 degrees (firm ball stage) about 30-40 minutes.3
Remove from heat; stir in vanilla.4
Insert wooden sticks into the apples.5
Dip each apple into hot caramel mixture; turn to coat.6
Holding by the stick, sprinkle with nuts or whatever you desire while the caramel is still warm.7
Set on buttered wax paper to cool.8
Note: if making a double recipe make two recipes in two separate pots.

The best caramel apples ever. I rolled mine in pecans and drizzled chocolate over them. To get caramel to stick dip apples in boiling water for 3 seconds. Apples discolor but they are going to be covered in caramel

I wish I could post you a picture of the 38 carmel apples nicely packaged for my Bible Story Time Kids. My 8 year old dd keeps exclaiming, "oh they are gonna love these mom!" I had to go through two batches before I got it down though. The first batch I overcooked, the second batch The milk curdled. Then I realized I needed to stir the carmel constantly. But the last three batches came out beautiful. I added salt because I used unsalted butter. The carmel is excellent. Thanks so much for the recipe!!!!

This recipe is great IF you follow directions, lol! The first batch that I made turned out horrible because I did not heat over medium high heat and stir for 30 minutes. I reread the directions and the second time it worked perfectly. I used Sweetened Condensed Milk for the consdensed milk and it worked wonderful. Thanks for posting this recipe, the kids loved this special treat!
