Ingredients
Method
- Start by inserting a popsicle stick into the top of each apple, ensuring it’s secure and doesn’t wobble.
- Over a double boiler, melt the caramels and water, stirring frequently until the mixture becomes smooth.
- Once melted, dip each apple into the caramel mixture, making sure they are fully coated.
- Allow the excess caramel to drip off, then place the coated apples onto a parchment-lined tray.
- In another double boiler, melt the chocolate chips, stirring until smooth.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, warm the peanut butter for about 30 seconds or until it becomes runny.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel-coated apples using a spoon or a piping bag.
- Follow this by drizzling the runny peanut butter over the apples.
- Finally, sprinkle the crushed peanuts on top for an added crunch.
- Allow the Chocolate Peanut Butter Caramel Apples to set in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or until the coatings are firm.
