  • 3 large Granny Smith apples
  • 10 oz milk chocolate melting wafers
  • 3/4 cup caramel baking bits

Step by Step Instructions

Sliced apple with cake pop stick in them on parchment lined baking sheet.
Apples on stick are dipped into melted chocolate.

STEP ONE – Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

STEP TWO – Slice the very ends off each apple, then slice  each side just to the core. You’ll have two ½-¾ inch apple slices per apple.

STEP FOUR – Pat both sides of the apples dry.

STEP FIVE – Melt the chocolate, then dip the apples, using a spoon to help if needed. Allow excess chocolate to drip off, then set on parchment paper. Do not allow the apples to touch.
