A New Way to Indulge in Caramel Apples

These caramel apple nachos are a delicious way to use up fresh-picked apples for a flavorful fall snack.

Ingredients:

• Green and red apples
• Dark chocolate morsels
• Caramel dessert topping
• Optional toppings: crumbled chocolate sandwich cookies, mini chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, chopped pretzels, crushed graham crackers, shredded coconut and crushed nuts.

How-to:

1. Wash and core apples.
2. Slice apples into ¼–½-inch rounds and place on parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Microwave chocolate morsels in microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals. Stir until melted through — taking care not to burn. Using fork, drizzle caramel over apple slices. Repeat with melted chocolate.
4. Finish with preferred toppings, if using, and serve immediately. Refrigerate any leftovers.
