Ingredients
6 wooden sticks
6 medium tart apples, such as Granny Smith
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
1/3 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup 35% cream
1/2 cup butter
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt
white chocolate, melted
chocolate wafers, crushed
Instructions
LINE a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Insert chopsticks into apples.
STIR brown sugar with corn syrup, cream, butter, maple syrup, vanilla and salt in medium saucepan. Heat over medium-high until sugar dissolves, about 3 min. Boil, stirring constantly (and slowly) until candy thermometer registers 240F, about 10 min. Scrape caramel into heatproof 2-cup liquid measure and cool to 200F, about 10 min.
DIP apples, coating almost to the top. Invert, turning frequently, to allow caramel to set. Place apples on prepared sheet (it will pool a bit). Refrigerate about 2 min. If caramel pools, you can press it back up onto apple while still warm. Roll in melted white chocolate, then in chocolate wafer cookies. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour. Caramel apples can be made up to 1 week ahead.
