Chocolate Caramel Apple Slices
Chocolate CARAMEL APPLE slices are a fun way to make the popular fall dessert caramel apples. They are quick and easy to make and perfect as a homemade gift for this holiday season.
Equipment
- Baking donut mold / Silicon donut mold
- Glass bowl
- Mini bow mold
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup white candy melt
- 1 bag brown chocolate wafer
- 2 Medium size Apples
- 1 bag sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Wash and slice the apples into ¼ inches rounds. Cut the tough central core of the slices with 1 ¼ inches metal circle cutter and discard. Then transfer the apple slices into a bowl of water; add lemon juice or fresh fruit protector to the water to prevent discoloration of the apples.
- Then transfer the apples onto to a tray lined with paper towel to blot out any excess water from the apple slices. Place the apple slices in the refrigerator to chill.
- Melts the chocolate or candy melts either using double boiler or microwave. Spray donut baking pan with non-stick cooking oil to help release the apples when done. If you are using silicon donut mold, then there is no need to spray but make sure it is clean and dry.
- Then spoon 2 tablespoons of melted chocolate into each mold or about 1/3 halfway, tap and turn the baking pan or mold for the chocolate to coat the mold evenly. Drop one apple slice into each mold and add the melted caramel to cover the fruit. Place the mold into the refrigerator for about 5 minutes to firm the caramel.
- Add the rest of the melted chocolate to cover the caramel and the apples. You don’t want any apple or caramel showing. Place the mold into the refrigerator for about 20 – 30 minutes until the chocolate firms up. Flip the baking pan to release the apples if using but use your hands to unmold the apple from the silicone mold.
- Drizzle with melted chocolate, Serve and enjoy.
Notes
How to Store the Chocolate Covered Pineapple
The chocolate caramel apple slices can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Lay the chocolate-covered apples on a paper towel in a bowl and cover them with more paper towels.
These can also be frozen for up to three months. First, freeze the pineapple donut on parchment paper individually. When the pineapples are well frozen, stack them, wrap them with wax paper, and put them in a freezer zip lock bag, and store them. When ready to eat, defrost the pineapple in the fridge for about an hour.
