How to Make Poison Apples
Ingredients
2 C. Granulated Sugar
½ C. Light Corn Syrup
¾ C. Water
½ t. Gel Icing Color
12 small Apples
Wooden skewers
Instructions
- Start by washing your apples, drying them, and removing the stems(twist until they snap off or use the tip of a paring knife to dig them out).
- Insert wooden skewers(knobby sticks are also fun!) into the center of each apple.
- Assemble ingredients. Make sure to have a small cup of water and a basting brush nearby. You’ll also want to have a sheet of parchment paper next to the stove to set your apples on after dipping.
- Add the sugar, water, and corn syrup to a medium saucepan.
- Add about ½ teaspoon of purple gel icing color to the pan and stir lightly.
- Fix a candy thermometer to the side of the pan and turn the heat on to medium-high. While the mixture heats up and begins boiling, continuously brush down the sides of pan with water using the basting brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming. Do not stir the syrup once it has started to boil!
