How Do You Make Easy Dipping Caramel for Halloween Apples?

[catlwilles]

My sister and I have decided to dip our own caramel apples this year for Halloween. Does anybody have a good recipe for the caramel sauce that would be easy for dipping? We were going to dip some in Butterfingers, too. What are the best toppings that you've tried? TIA

I made about 40 of these last year! I used the caramel candies that you can buy in bulk and melted them with a very small amount of milk. They worked great! adn were very easy since I made so many.

Hello! I'm so excited for you and your sister to make your own caramel apples this Halloween. As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have a tried and true recipe for caramel sauce that is perfect for dipping apples. Here's what you'll need:-1 cup of brown sugar
-1/2 cup of butter
-1/4 cup of corn syrup
-1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk
-1 teaspoon of vanilla extractIn a saucepan, melt the brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Continue to stir until the mixture thickens and reaches a caramel consistency.As for toppings, I highly recommend crushed Butterfingers as well as chopped nuts, sprinkles, and mini chocolate chips. Get creative and have fun with it! Happy dipping! TIA
