Steps:
- Grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
- Add the water and sugar to a medium saucepan. Cook over high heat, without stirring (so the mixture doesn't crystallize), for about 10 minutes, until the mixture begins to turn golden brown. Note: Use a larger pan than you think you need; the caramel will bubble up when you add the cream.
- Reduce the heat to low. Slowly pour in a little bit of the heavy cream. The mixture will bubble. When it begins to recede, carefully whisk to incorporate the cream. Continue adding the cream in increments, stirring to incorporate.
- Once the cream is incorporated, stir in the salt. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 10-12 minutes more, until the caramel reaches 250°F (120°C) on an instant read thermometer. Remove the pot from the heat and let the caramel cool for about 5 minutes.
- Carefully transfer the caramel to a heatproof liquid measuring cup or bowl. Stir in the marshmallow cream until mostly incorporated.
- Stick a popsicle stick though the top of each apple, about ⅔ of the way through.
- Dip an apple into the caramel until completely coated. Lift the apple from the caramel and spin the stick for 20-30 seconds to remove excess caramel. Roll the apple in the marshmallow cereal and place upright on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining apples.
- Serve the apples immediately, or let set at room temperature for 1 hour. Leftover caramel apples will keep, loosely covered, in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
- Enjoy!
