Caramel Apples with Coconut & Chocolate Drizzle image

Adding ooey, gooey, sweet and sticky caramel to a crisp fall apple is always a good idea. And adding coconut and chocolate on top of that? Brilliant.

Time 1h40m

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 apples (1-1/2 lb.), well chilled
1 pkg. (11 oz.) KRAFT Caramels
1 Tbsp. water
1-1/2 cups BAKER'S ANGEL FLAKE Coconut, toasted
2 oz. BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate

Steps:

  • Wash apples, then dry completely. (Note: In order for the caramel sauce to stick to the apples, the apples need to be well chilled before washing, drying and dipping in the caramel sauce.)
  • Insert wooden pop stick into stem end of each apple. Microwave caramels and water in large glass microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 to 2-1/2 min. or until caramels are completely melted and mixture is well blended when stirred.
  • Cover large plate with parchment; spray with cooking spray. Dip apples, 1 at a time, into caramel sauce, turning to evenly coat each apple. Hold dipped apple over bowl to let excess caramel drip back into bowl. Dip apples in coconut; place on prepared plate. Refrigerate 15 min.
  • Microwave chocolate in separate microwaveable bowl 1 to 1 min. 15 sec. or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after 1 min.; stir until completely melted. Drizzle chocolate over apples; return to plate.
  • Refrigerate 1 hour or until chocolate is firm. Remove apples from refrigerator 15 min. before serving. (Note: Caramel apples can be refrigerated up to 2 days before serving.)
