Caramel Apples
 
Apples: A Country Garden Cookbook
Christopher Idone
1993, William Morrow & Co
 
“These gooey delights are an easy dessert for kids to make.
MacIntosh are the
only apples to use.”
4 to 5 McIntosh apples
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup dark corn syrup
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Wash and dry the apples, remove the stems and stick a wooden
skewer into each stem end. Set skewered apples aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, syrup, cream and
butter
and place over high heat. Bring to a boil for 3 to 5 minutes, or
until
it registers 245 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
Remove from the heat and swirl in the vanilla. Quickly dip
the
apples,
one at a time, into the caramel and spoon over the apples
to
cover
completely. Hold the skewer between the palms of your
hands and
spin
for a moment to cool. Place upright on waxed
paper.
Makes 4 to 5 candied
apples.

1 1⁄3 cups heavy cream
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
3⁄4 teaspoon vanilla extract

bottomed medium saucepan.
