Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 10 apples

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 medium Granny Smith apples
Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the baking sheet
2 cups chocolate sandwich cookies, such as Oreos, cream filling removed
2 cups sugar
1 cup buttermilk (see Cook's Note)
1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Heavy cream, to thin the caramel, if necessary
Sea salt, for sprinkling
One 12-ounce bag white chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Rinse and dry the apples. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Push one stick into the top of each apple, then place on the baking sheet with the stick standing straight up.
  • Place the cookies in a large resealable plastic bag and roll with a rolling pin to crush. Set aside.
  • In a large saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar, buttermilk, butter, baking soda, and vanilla and bring just to a boil, stirring constantly. Attach a candy thermometer to the pan, and continue to boil and stir until the mixture reaches 238 degrees F, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Dip each apple, one at a time, immediately into the caramel, leaving a 1/4-inch ring of green by the stick, and return the apple to the baking sheet. If the caramel starts to solidify while you are dipping apples, stir in heavy cream, a few drops at a time, until the caramel reaches a spreadable consistency.
  • After all the apples have been dipped, lightly sprinkle them with sea salt. Allow the caramel to set, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the white chocolate chips on high in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted. Dip each apple into the melted white chocolate, leaving a 1/4-inch ring of caramel exposed. Immediately dip the white chocolate-covered caramel apple in a layer of crushed cookie topping, leaving 1/4 inch of the white chocolate exposed.

Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 apples
Cooking spray
4 cups sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 cups heavy cream, at room temperature
Crushed chocolate cookies, for coating

Steps:

  • Insert a wooden stick into the stem end of each apple. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Make the caramel: Melt the sugar and corn syrup in a large pot over medium-high heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until combined. Don't stress if it starts to clump: It will eventually even out. Cook, swirling the pan but not stirring, until dark amber in color and a candy thermometer registers 245 degrees F, 8 to 12 minutes.
  • Add the butter all at once, stirring until incorporated. Turn down the heat to medium and pour in the heavy cream (the mixture will foam up); whisk until smooth.
  • Increase the heat to medium high and bring the caramel up to 250 degrees F, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Dip the apples in the caramel and roll in crushed cookies; place on the baking sheet to set, 5 to 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Select the Right Apples: Choose firm, crisp apples like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn that can hold their shape when coated in caramel.
  • Prepare the Apples Properly: Wash and thoroughly dry the apples before inserting the lollipop sticks. Make sure to remove any blemishes or bruises.
  • Use High-Quality Caramel: Opt for a good-quality caramel sauce or make your own to ensure a rich, smooth coating. If using store-bought caramel, heat it gently to a pourable consistency.
  • Keep the Caramel Warm: Maintain the caramel at a low simmer throughout the dipping process to prevent it from hardening. If it starts to thicken, add a splash of cream or milk.
  • Dip the Apples Evenly: Hold the apple by the stick and fully immerse it in the caramel, rotating it to coat evenly. Let any excess caramel drip off before placing the apple on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Add Toppings Immediately: While the caramel is still wet, sprinkle your desired toppings such as crushed Oreos, chopped nuts, or drizzles of chocolate or peanut butter. Press them gently into the caramel to ensure they stick.
  • Chill the Apples: Once the caramel has hardened, transfer the apples to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set the caramel completely.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you can create delicious and visually stunning Oreo caramel apples that are perfect for parties, gifts, or simply enjoying as a sweet treat. Experiment with different apple varieties, toppings, and drizzle options to find your favorite combinations. Remember to store the caramel apples properly in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks to maintain their freshness and quality.
