Ingredients
4 inch lollipop sticks
melon baller
apples (1 apples makes about 8 mini apples)
peanut butter, butterscotch or chocolate chips
crushed candy bars, NERDS, sprinkles
small paper candy cups
Directions
1. Cut the lollipop sticks in half at an angle (the pointy end will go into the apple pieces easier). With the melon baller, scoop little balls out of the apple. Each ball should have a section of apple peel. Push half of a lollipop stick into the peel of each ball. Pat the apple pieces dry.
2. Melt the chips according to the package directions. Dip and swirl the mini apples in the melted chips, then roll the apples in crushed candy bars, NERDS, sprinkles. Place the mini apples in paper candy cups to set.
2. Melt the chips according to the package directions. Dip and swirl the mini apples in the melted chips, then roll the apples in crushed candy bars, NERDS, sprinkles. Place the mini apples in paper candy cups to set.

Here's what we used
After you scoop out your little apple balls, make sure to pat them dry. Otherwise it is difficult for the melted chips to stick to the apple.
This was fun to do with my little girls. They were happy to help make and eat these little apples. This would be a fun activity for the holidays or anytime there's a party! My 7 yr. old said these are "nutritious and delicious!" :)

Hi Jessica,
DeleteI'm so glad you stopped over and thank you so much for following! I'm going to go check out your blog, too. :)
So fun. These would be great for kids or people like me who have really small mouths. I love caramel apples but they are so hard to eat. I'd love it if you shared these over at my link party. http://acraftycook.blogspot.com/2012/09/1-month-of-fun-september-link-party.html
ReplyDeleteHi Erin,
DeleteThank you for the invite. I'd love to share these over at your link party. I'm going over now...
What are the odds that the two posts I chose to check out from Show and Share's linky party are both yours? My boys and I also made these this summer, and they absolutely loved them: http://thedomesticatedprincess.blogspot.com/2012/06/bucket-list-activity-6-mini-caramel.html.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike, right? ;)
