Peanut Caramel Apple Crisp Food

PEANUT BUTTER CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray .
• Place the chopped peanut butter cups and peanuts in separate bowls and set aside for now.
• Wash and dry the apples carefully. Remove the stems, and stick skewers firmly in the stem ends.
• Place the unwrapped caramels and the water in a microwave-safe bowl.
• Microwave for 1 minute, then stir; microwave for an additional minute or until completely melted. Continue to heat caramel in short intervals until it is a workable temperature and consistency. It should be smooth and very fluid by the end.
• Hold an apple by the skewer and dip it in the caramel, tilting the bowl at an angle and rotating the apple to cover it completely with a smooth, even layer. Use a spoon, if necessary, to pour caramel over the top so that the entire apple is covered.
• Bring it out of the caramel and twirl it upside down to remove excess, then set on the prepared baking sheet.
• Repeat with remaining apples. Place the caramel-covered apples in the refrigerator to set for at least 30 minutes.
• Place the chocolate or chocolate candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring every 45 seconds.
• Dip the caramel-covered apple in the chocolate, until the caramel is almost entirely covered. Use a spoon if it helps to pour some of the chocolate over the caramel to get even coverage.
• Press some chopped peanut butter cups into the chocolate while it is still wet, and sprinkle the chopped peanuts evenly over the wet chocolate.
• Place the apple back on the baking sheet and repeat with remaining apples.
• Place the peanut butter chips and coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave until the chips are melted, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating.
• Transfer the melted chips into a small plastic bag and snip off a small corner of the bag.
• Drizzle the peanut butter chips in a thin line over the top of each apple, radiating out from the center, for a beautiful finishing touch. Refrigerate the apples until the peanut butter sets-about 15 minutes.
• Tightly wrap apples individually in plastic wrap if not serving immediately and store them in the refrigerator for up to a week.
