PEANUT CARAMEL APPLES
I remember always getting candy and caramel apples at the fair or down the shore when I was a kid. This recipe is a little different with the addition of peanut butter, but just as good or better! If you remember having these as a kid, make them and be a kid again :) Or make them for your kids or grandkids for a treat!

PEANUT BUTTER-TRAIL MIX CARAMEL APPLES
Steps:
- Put the peanut butter chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until melted. Roughly chop the trail mix into smaller pieces and put in a shallow dish. Dip each caramel apple in the melted peanut butter chips, then roll in the trail mix. Let stand on parchment paper until set. If you like, place the dipped apples in a windowed kraft paper candy-apple box and tie jute twine on the stick.
