- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Line a baking sheet with greased parchment or greased wax paper.

Tips:
- Choose firm, crisp apples that are not too ripe. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
- Make sure the caramel is at the right temperature before dipping the apples. If the caramel is too hot, it will burn the apples. If the caramel is too cold, it will not adhere to the apples.
- Work quickly when dipping the apples in the caramel. The caramel will start to set quickly, so you need to be able to coat the apples evenly before it hardens.
- If the caramel is too thick, you can thin it out with a little bit of water or milk.
- If you want to add toppings to your toffee apples, such as nuts, sprinkles, or chocolate chips, do so immediately after dipping the apples in the caramel. The toppings will adhere better to the caramel while it is still wet.
Conclusion:
Toffee apples are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for Halloween, Thanksgiving, or Christmas. They are also a great way to use up any leftover apples you have on hand. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make your own toffee apples at home. So next time you are looking for a fun and easy dessert, give toffee apples a try.
