fastest CaRaMeL aPpLeS ever!


Hey There
! so I'm going to share a super fast super duper easy & delicious CARMEL APPLE 
recipe with ya! 

1. I started with 5 granny smith apples... something about the sour with the sweet is just delicious. 
2. Wash all five of the apples off, now my grandma told me the trick was to sand the apple just slightly to rough up the wax to insure that the carmel didnt just slide right off ha ha.
3. Place a stick next to the core of the apple (some people get super fancy & go buy pointed kabob sticks) but little ol me just used Popsicle sticks cuz that's what I had on hand.
4. Melt your caramel....Now my grandma always made it from scratch and it was WONDERFUL, but I don't have that much patience time so I took the easy road and just bought packaged caramel. (Even better I got the kraft caramel bits, cuz these little guys are in balls and all ready to just jump in your pan... you don't even have to unwrap them)
5. I think my caramel took close to 5 minutes to get all warm and bubbly and ready for dippin' but depending on your stove it might go even faster, although I would recommend keeping it on med/low heat because it will burn if you try to rush the process.

6. Then after they are all coated with caramel and had been sitting a good 5 minutes I melted some white Almond Bark in the microwave, placed it in a zip-lock baggie and cut the tip to get a really pretty drizzle over the caramel. 
7. You can certainly add sprinkles if you have them, I couldn't find all of mine so I just left them plain. 

NOW GO ENJOY YOUR APPLES, THEY'RE ALMOST A HEALTHY SNACK! ha ha =D

I LOVE LOVE LOVE fall !

 Hey so I just wanted to tell you all how much I LOVE the fall months....everything about it makes me sooo insanely happy!
The trees changing color, the awesome smell of hot cider & pumpkin pie baking, the fall time crafts and my favorite little pumpkin candies (you know the ones I'm talking about)... the licorice flavored little guys with the happy faces, I have always loved those since i was a little girl ! I even used them for part of my decor this fall =D
 I love the baking and the Christmas music in the grocery store, and call me crazy but i even LOVE black Friday shopping! There is something really exciting about pulling an all nigher with my sister and leaving at 3 in the morning to stand in line at Target to get a really awesome deal on like socks or something else i really didn't need to fight off hoards of people to find a parking spot for really useful! ha ha I hope all of you have a wonderful thanksgiving with your families! 
MUCH FALL SEASON LOVE !
