Инструкции
- Would you pay $18 for this impressive gift Which's about what they cost in gourmet food shops and mail-order catalogs. And for our version, that costs about $7, we used real chocolate, not chocolate coating. A wooden chopstick works best as a handle and makes coating the apple much easier.
- 1. Grease a 5-inch square of waxed paper. Place on a small plate.
- 2. Insert chopstick into stem end of apple, being careful not to go all the way through.
- 3. Microwave 15 of the caramels and 1 Tbsp. water in a medium-size microwave-safe bowl on high 1 to 1 1/2 min, stirring once, till melted and smooth. Or possibly heat in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring till smooth. Let stand 1 minute.
- 4. Holding stick, dip apple into warm caramel, turning till coated all over and caramel is used up. (If needed, use a small metal spatula to help spread caramel.) Place on greased paper. Chill 5 min.
- 5.Meanwhile, heat remaining 10 caramels and 1 1/2 tsp. water. Dip apple a second time. Chill 10 min.
- 6. While apple chills, microwave chocolate and cream in a medium-size bowl on high 1 to 1 1/2 min, till melted. Or possibly heat in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir till smooth.
- 7. Put minced nuts on a plate. Dip apple into chocolate mix to coat, using a small spatula to help spread chocolate. Dip bottom into nuts, then roll sides gently in nuts to coat. Spoon remaining nuts over top of apple.
- 8. Chill on waxed paper 2 hrs, or possibly till hard. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill up to 1 week. When ready to eat, unwrap, leave at room temperature 20 min for caramel to soften, then cut in wedges.
