you know those ones that are giant and covered in caramel, nuts, chocolate, etc.
Have you ever made them. Here's a pic

I'd like to try these. I'd also like to send a couple to my niece in college and I'm wondering how that would be shipped.

Yum!!!
I don't ever SEE apples that big to make them.....
But I do make caramel apple pie.. just take about 15 Kraft caramels - (cut into 4's)
3 cups of chopped apples (1/2 inch) leave the skins on!
mix with 1 cup of flour, 2t. lemon juice and 2/3 c. caramel ice cream topping. Pour the mixture in a frozen pie crust and top with 1/2 c or so of pecan pieces. Bake for 45minutes... the caramels melt perfectly and if you top it off with a little vanilla ice cream it is the best fall dessert!!!!
double yum!!!

yeah - it's the best - and it is SOO easy. I used to work at KidsPeace in Allentown and we were on a 350 acre apple/peach orchard - they didn't cut all the trees down so in the fall it was free pickin - we put a recipe book together of just apple recipes.. too funny. I miss the fall up there for sure - but at least I still have the pie!!!

We used to have an apple tree in our backyard, but when we built the addition on our house it had to go.....
Few things in life are better than a super crispy apple right off the tree!!
