Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 apples
  • 1 bag caramels unwrapped
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup crushed peanuts
  • 20 lollipop sticks

Method
 

  1. Scoop balls from the apples using a melon baller and pat them dry.
  2. Press a lollipop stick into each apple ball.
  3. Melt the caramels with the cream until smooth and glossy.
  4. Dip each apple ball into the caramel, letting the excess drip off.
  5. Roll the bottoms in crushed peanuts and set on parchment to firm up.

Notes

Drying the apple balls well helps the caramel actually stick.
