Directions
Candied Apples,Great for all of your Halloween Trick or Treaters ; ),A excellant candy apple! Can do no better.,10-Star Fabulous!!! These are incredible candy apples, perfect in every way. I loved these as a child and wanted to make some for my own kids to experience. Recipe is very easy with clear directions. An accurate candy thermometer is a must here. Like any candy, I also would not suggest making these on a humid day or increasing or decreasing the recipe. I made 6 medium/small apples and had enough to coat a couple more. Instead, I poured the coating onto a piece of foil and broke it into hard candy. A silpat works really well instead of a buttered baking sheet for letting the apples cool and harden which took about 30 minutes. I wasn’t sure about using powdered spices in the mixture but it came out wonderfully. Just the right amount of cinnamon and sweetness without being too spicy for the kids. Thanks, RecipeNut!!!
