How To Make Chocolate Apples
By stubbs
Chocolate apples are a twist on the ever popular candy apple. For chocoholics and people that don't like picking the bits of caramel out of their teeth this is the Halloween treat for them. It still provides that extra sweetness that complements a juicy sweet apple so well. This easy recipe will allow you to make your very own and show off to your friends and family that you don't have to get ready made chocolate apples.
Ingredients
6 sweet apples: Cox's or Braeburn
6 wooden sticks
150g Dark/ Plain Chocolate (40-80% cocoa solids)
100g Milk Chocolate (20-30% cocoa solids)
20g butter
4 tbsp golden syrup
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1. Firstly you need to press the wooden sticks into the end of the apple with the stalk.
2. Now chop up the chocolate and add to a pan or saucepan. Then add in the butter, golden syrup and vanilla extract.
3. Apply a gentle heat and stir gently until all is melted and is thick and slightly creamy.
4. Remove the pan from the heat and dip in your apples whilst twirling them to cover, place flat end down onto a board or tray and place in the fridge. The chocolate should take about 15 minutes to set.
5. If you are not happy your apples are covered enough in chocolate then once the chocolate has gone hard repeat the process, heat up whatever remaining chocolate mixture you have left and dip in again. This will give a second layer of chocolate and cover the apple better.
Alternatives
Whilst the chocolate is still soft press in extra treats such as nuts which you could sprinkle on or marshmallows, sprinkles, crushed biscuits or cookies.
If a whole apple is too much chop the apple into 1/4s or 1/8s and then dip in the chocolate mixture.
Why not experiments using the same quantities but with white chocolate or try marbling effects with the different chocolate colours.
