Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients
4 medium red apples
4 Popsicle or decorative lollipop sticks
2 cups sugar
1 cup water
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
Red food coloring
Black food coloring

Steps:

  • Wash and dry apples; remove stems. Insert Popsicle sticks into apples. Place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet; set aside.
  • In a large heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, water and corn syrup. Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 290° (soft-crack stage).
  • Remove from the heat and pour into two small bowls; stir 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and red food coloring in one bowl. Stir black food coloring and remaining cinnamon into other bowl.
  • Working quickly, dip apples into hot sugar mixtures to completely coat. Place on prepared baking sheet; let stand until set. Yield: 4 servings.
