Candied Apples

Last week it was Kaitlyn’s turn to help me prepare meals at dinnertime and to set the dinner table.  She cheerfully helped make these delicious apples on Saturday night; a special treat for AFTER dinner.

First she unwrapped an entire package of caramels and we let them melt in the double boiler on the stovetop with a little water.  We buttered a cookie sheet and Kaitlyn but sticks through the apples after she washed them.  It was quite fun to dip the apples and use a spoon to help cover them.

Once dipped and on the cookie sheet we sprinkled the apples with cinnamon and squirted melted chocolate chips in a wavy design on the apples.  We let them chill while we ate our dinner.

Candied apples were a hit!  They were delicious and everyone loved them.  Nathan used some of the caramel for hair mousse!

What a good helper Kaitlyn was!
