Ingredients

10 apples
10 apple sticks or skewers for apples
22 oz caramels
4 tbsp heavy whipping cream
1 pinch salt

Steps

Wash and dry the apples completely, then push one stick into the stem end of each apple.
Melt the caramels, cream, and salt in a medium saucepan over low heat for eight minutes, stirring until smooth.
Dip each apple into the warm caramel and turn it to coat evenly.
Place the apples stick-side up on a lightly oiled parchment-lined baking sheet.
Chill the apples for ten minutes, until the caramel is firm.
