Ingredients
3 to 4 crisp apples (e.g., Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
Juice of 1 lemon
11 oz (311 grams) soft caramels, unwrapped
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Assorted toppings: crushed nuts, sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, shredded coconut, flaky sea salt
Instructions
Prepare the Apples: Slice apples into 1/4-inch wedges. Toss them in lemon juice to prevent browning. Arrange them on a parchment-lined sheet pan in a single layer.
Melt the Caramel: In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the soft caramels and heavy cream. Stir until smooth and pourable. Drizzle the caramel over the apple slices.
Add Chocolate: Melt the dark chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel-coated apples.
Sprinkle Toppings: Add your choice of toppings, like crushed nuts, sprinkles, or flaky sea salt.
Set and Serve: Let the caramel and chocolate set for 5-10 minutes. To speed up the process, refrigerate the sheet pan briefly. Once set, serve and enjoy!
