Class recipe for making Gourmet Candy Apples
Source: Christian
Homemaking
Author: Martha Matthews
8 apples (Granny Smiths or something a little tart)
8 wooden skewers or sticks
2 1/3 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup waterRed coloring
Grease a baking pan and set it aside. Wash and dry the apples thoroughly.
Remove the stems. Insert a wooden skewer into the stem end of each
apple.
Place sugar, syrup, and water in a small, heavy, deep saucepan
so that the syrup will be deep enough to dip the apples into. On
a medium heat, stir the sugar until it is dissolved. When the mixture
starts boiling, stir in the food coloring. Do NOT stir the mixture
from this point on. Wipe the sides of the pan with a damp cloth
to remove any sugar crystals that form. Boil without stirring until
syrup is brittle when a small amount is dropped into cold water,
or 300 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
Dip the apples into syrup. Be very careful around small children
with the hot syrup. Remove at once, twisting each apple to spread
the syrup evenly. Stand apples on a greased baking sheet. Let stand
until the syrup hardens.

Prepare candied apples. Roll end of apple in one of the following
crushed cereals: Captain Crunch, Fruit Loops or a granola-type cereal
before placing on baking sheet.
