I love everything mini (so does everyone).
And a caramel apple is a little bit too sweet and HUGE for my taste, and duh, I love Chocolate.
Tonight I made these. I've made them before and posted about it years ago but I still get asked how to do it and so here is a step by step. Its not hard, and it totally is a crowd pleaser.
Move over cake pops (barf).
----What you will need to make (roughly) 3 dozen apple bites----
-4 apples (i did 2 of green and 2 of red cause I am FESTIVE and cute)
-a melon baller
-dipping chocolate (i like to use milk chocolate)
-lollipop sticks
-toppings (this time i did cinnamon and sugar, graham crackers and mini semi sweet chips)
Ok so lets get started!
First you have to cut the lollipop sticks in half, slanted so they are pointy, little, paper, knives.
Next, after washing your apples of course, get out your melon baller and start going to town
let the apples dry up a bit on a paper towel so that the chocolate will stick better
Melt your chocolate
Stick each lollipop stick into each apple piece, skin side...obviously. (Not pictured)
Dip each apple into your chocolate and then immediately spoon on your topping (dont dip or they will look bunk, like the ones pictured...i forgot at first)
Let them sit in the fridge for 15 minutes to totally harden
Pack em up and ship them out!
Because if you don't you will eat them all.
Don't try to be a hero and do caramel, cause it WILL NOT STICK.
And don't say I didn't warn you when you decide to try it anyway like a total dummy.
2 thoughtful remarks:
The boys made these at school, and HONEST, I thought of you and all things mini. They look delicious. Please send them to my house, Now.
Maybe once a year I'll see a recipe and think, "Hm, I want to try that." This is officially it for 2011.
