I love fall and I LOVE caramel apples.  I saw this idea for making caramel apples – nacho style and I couldn’t wait to try it.  It’s simple, delicious, and you can add as many (or as few) toppings as you’d like.  The end result is a lot easier to eat than a traditional caramel apple too…although still a little messy!

CARAMEL APPLE NACHOS

30 large marshmallows

5 Tbsp butter

35 caramels

1 Tbsp water

4-5 apples, sliced

toppings (peanuts, sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, crushed candy bars, etc)

Melt the marshmallows and butter in a saucepan over low heat.  Stir periodically until completely melted and smooth.  Combine the caramels and water in a bowl and microwave until melted.  I microwaved mine in 45 second intervals, stirring in between until the caramel was smooth.  Arrange the sliced apples on a plate and pour the caramel and marshmallow mixtures over them.  Add any additional toppings and serve immediately!  Enjoy!
