Ingredients

8 ounces’ soft caramels

1/4 cup  Sherry wine jam

4 green apples

Toppings

chopped nuts

shredded coconut

toffee bits

cookie crumbs

sprinkles

Preparation

Lightly grease a piece of parchment.

Melt soft caramels and jam together in a small saucepan over medium-low heat stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Pour caramel into a deep bowl for dipping and cool for 5 minutes.

Use a melon baller to scoop out the green apples; each apple should yield 12-13 balls.

Skewer each apple ball, dip to coat in caramel, roll in desired topping, and place on greased parchment.

Let the mini caramel apples cool for 30-60 minutes before serving.

Note: Refrigerating dipped apples will cause the coating to slide off. Toppings are used to keep the caramel from sliding off the apples.
