Gourmet Chocolate Caramel Apples
I’m not sure what I love most about the arrival of autumn. Don’t get me wrong, there is plenty of stuff to love about this time of year. These caramel apples are at the top of my list. Classic comfort food this time of year like pumpkin, squash, savory soups, slow cooker recipes, casseroles, crumbles and more apple recipes are at the top of my list too. Getting comfortable during sweater weather and wearing fashionable boots while sipping apple cider and hot cocoa is pretty awesome. All the holidays and beautiful outdoor colors is something I look forward to each and every year!
In case you needed a reason to get outside and visit an apple orchard this year, there is this luscious recipe to give you an idea.
This time of year, apple orchards are overflowing with deliciously ripe apples. Know what makes them taste even better? Caramel and chocolate is the trick behind making this into the classic recipe you need to try this year!
Gourmet dipped and drizzled Chocolate and Caramel Apples with a variety of toppings such as chopped nuts, crushed Oreos and Graham Cracker crumbs.
Make easy Gourmet Caramel Apples in the comfort of your home. Invite your friends and enjoy decorating the apples with kids. This elegant autumn project is a lot of fun to make!
I cannot remember the last time I made caramel apples. In fact, I’ve always shied away from chocolate and caramel concoctions in general. However, not this year. My Facebook feed has been full of Caramel Apple fun and I couldn’t resist.
This Caramel Apple Kit from Chocoley is truly amazing. They’ve included everything you can think of and want in a caramel apple. Lots of gourmet chocolate, check. Gourmet caramel, check! What they also include are wooden sticks, more chocolate to drizzle on the apples to your hearts content, cello bags to store the apples in and dipping sheets. The kit is truly phenomenal and really brings back childhood memories of dipping caramel apples with mom.

10-12 Large Honey Crisp Apples
Assortment of Toppings such as: Nuts, Oreos, Graham Cracker Crumbs, Seeds and Candy

The Recipe
Gourmet Caramel Apples
Ingredients
- 10-12 Large Honey Crisp Apples
- 1 Caramel Apple Kit
- Evaporated Milk , few Tablespoons
- 2 cups nuts , chopped
- 15 Oreos , crushed
- Graham Cracker Crumbs , Optional
Instructions
- Under warm water, wash apples with a little soap and remove stems then thoroughly dry. Chop nuts and crush oreos and prepare other toppings if using.

Spray heavy weight dipping sheets with oil and place in refrigerator. In a tall dish (I used a tall yogurt container) dip apples into caramel. Use a spatula to clean extra caramel off the bottom.

What absolutely gorgeous caramel apples! I love how you’ve dipped them in various toppings… and they sound ah-mazing! Seriously. I could go for a few of these right now, haha.
This was one of my favorite links from last week’s #thatsfreshfriday link-up! I’ll be sharing it on my blog and social media channels starting at 7pm EST Thursday evening and going throughout the weekend! Can’t wait to see what you bring to the party this week. Keep up the great work!
LOVE making these as gifts! They are so impressive.
I could eat my screen. Nomnomnom. We have apples and I might have to make these!!
Thanks, Lynee. Caramel apples are a lot of fun to make this time of year!
Absolutely stunning! These look way too good to eat! 🙂
Thanks, Annmarie, we loved them!
Do you have a recipe without buying the kit for caramel apples,the kit is a little bit pricey.
Hi Carol, the caramel apple recipe is in the link below. Also you can use chocolate chips or chocolate bars to to then dunk the apples into after the caramel. For the drizzle, I used squeeze bottles (I think i saw some at walmart) to pour the chocolate into and squeeze on top. https://www.raininghotcoupons.com/cream-caramel-apples/

You don’t have to be a southern blogger to join, this post would be a great fit! Today’s linkup is already live! Can’t wait to see more from you! So glad I found your blog! 🙂
When I first saw the apple I thought OMG those are gorgeous but must be hard to make. Then, after I read the recipe, I think I could possibly do it myself! Wow – thanks! I just might make these to take to a halloween party!
Thanks, Vickie. I can’t remember the last time doing caramel apples but I’m pretty sure this was my first time as an adult on my own. It was a lot of fun and pretty easy. I usually have trouble melting chocolate but I’ve got it figured out with the microwave on 1/2 power now!
These sound sinful! I must make them =) Found you on the Pieced Pastimes link up!
This looks absolutely delicious. I love caramel apples and am making this asap!
Thanks so much, you’ll love these!

Those are stunning! Remind me of the caramel apples from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory my mom used to buy my brother and I for Halloween when we were kids.
I love to make homemade treats for Halloween for my friends’ kids- these would be a perfect option!

Wow. That looks sooooo good! I actually just at a Honey Crisp apple today for the first time……but it did not have all of that yumminess on it! Thanks so much for linking up to the DIY Inspired party tonight. 🙂 XOXO
