Fran’s Caramel Apples,This is an old school recipe for caramel apples.,Was looking for a recipe that didn’t use caramels to melt or whipping cream. This was delicious, smooth, easy and perfect for candy apples! used the items I had: butter instead of margarine, white corn syrup instead Karo syrup. I made only enough for 4 apples, and cooked it on med for approx 10 min until it reached soft ball stage (take 1/2 tsp of caramel, drop it into a cup of cold water, then roll it in your fingers, it should form a soft ball). It was not gritty at all. Perhaps the last reviewer didn’t cook it long enough? I would use this one again! Delicious, creamy and not too sweet, perfect!,I followed this recipe to the T and I was not impressed. The caramel tasted good, but it was too thin and did not harden. I also found the caramel gritty. Once apples were dipped I put them on wax paper and they stuck to the wax paper. The caramel has yet to harden up after 1 day and they’re so sticky. Like I said, the caramel was tasty, I’ll make it again and just keep it thin and pour it over sliced apples. Thanks for posting!
