Caramel Apples

Dessert

I have fond memories of Thanksgivings with the Spelts side of the family and the smell of yummy food coming from the kitchen. We are very blessed with good cooks in our family. Our cute niece had the brilliant idea to make caramel apples & to sale them. Seriously, such a smart idea. First of all who can resist that cute face? Second of all, the cousin “peer pressure” is real. If one get one everyone else will want one, ha ha ha. She made a killing. She honestly did a great job. The caramel apples were beautiful and super yummy. It was worth whatever dollar amount we spent on them. This recipe is simple and super fun for the whole family to make.
