Ingredients
- Fresh apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- Caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- Mini chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk)
- Chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, or almonds)
- Mini marshmallows
- Sprinkles (seasonal or favorite mix)
- Crushed cookies (graham crackers or shortbread)
- Optional: melted peanut butter or white chocolate
Instructions
- Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Slice them into thin wedges, about 1/4 inch thick, removing the core. Arrange the slices in a single layer on your platter or plate.
- Set up small bowls with your chosen toppings, like chocolate chips, nuts, marshmallows, and crushed cookies.
- Warm the caramel sauce slightly if needed (around 10 seconds in the microwave works well). Using a spoon, drizzle the caramel generously over the apple slices.
- Sprinkle chocolate chips, nuts, marshmallows, and other toppings evenly over the apples.
- Optional: drizzle melted peanut butter or white chocolate for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Serve immediately to keep the apples crisp.
Notes
[‘Use firm, crisp apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best texture.’, ‘Warm the caramel sauce slightly for easier drizzling.’, ‘Toss apple slices with lemon juice to prevent browning if prepping ahead.’, ‘Layer toppings strategically, starting with those that stick well to the caramel.’]
