Caramel Apples With Chocolate & Peanuts
Ooooooh, these apples are the real deal. Drowned in a layer of caramel, drizzled with chocolates and topped with roasted peanuts, you just can’t go wrong. You could use Homemade Caramel but for these I find Kraft caramels adhere quite well. You can really go crazy with the toppings. Some of our faves include chopped Oreos, sprinkles, mini chocolate chips and Reese’s Pieces. You may have seen these sold in stores for around 20$. They always look good but never taste as fresh or delicious as the homemade version. You also can control the type of apple. I highly recommend using a Honeycrisp apple. You may also love Shortcut Mini Apple Pies or Cinnamon Apple Cake.

Do you have any suggestions on how to keep the drizzle bottles warm for use at a Carmel Apple bar?
