Description

Granny Smith apples are covered in chocolate and rolled in candy or nuts. Use your favorite dark, milk, or white chocolate for a fun Halloween treat.

Ingredients

10 small Granny Smith apples
1/2 cup chopped roasted peanuts
1/2 cup candy-coated milk chocolate candies
2 pounds semisweet chocolate, chopped

Directions

1 Gather the ingredients.
2 Insert wooden craft sticks or lollipop sticks into the cores of the apples at the stem.
3 Place roasted peanuts and candies on separate plates; set aside.
4 Place chocolate into a metal or glass bowl and set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until melted. Remove from heat.
5 Dip apples into melted chocolate, turning to coat completely. Dip or roll in candy or nuts, then place on a sheet of waxed paper. Repeat with remaining apples.
6 Allow apples to set at room temperature until the chocolate is firm before serving, about 20 minutes.
