Thanks to the little change in weather this past week,
Fall has sparked a great deal of inspiration for new recipes and snack-ee-doos!!!
Caramel Apples have always been my favorite fall treat. Its been a while since making these beauties... Now with my Culinary&Patisserie knowledge....I'm proud of the outcome. ENJOY!

Caramel (makes about 2 1/2 cups)
2c sugar
1/2c hvy cream
2 T unsalted butter
Cook sugar until evenly melted, gradually stirring to prevent burning
(**add a few drops of lemon juice to prevent crystallization)
Once sugar is melted and has reached the color you desire (300 degrees), add cream
(**carefully it will try to kiss you...lol) followed by butter and stir until you reach a smooth consistency.
Tada!!! caramel is finished, I like to strain it to get any lumps out.
Let caramel cool completely and set up overnight in an air tight container.
It should last for a month.
