03 — Method
- Wash and dry the apples well, remove the stems and push a wooden stick into the center of each.
- Melt the sugar dry in the heavy saucepan over medium heat without stirring until amber and glossy, watching so it doesn't burn.
- Off the heat, carefully add the butter and cream (it will bubble up), then stir with a wooden spoon until smooth.
- Dip each apple in the warm caramel, turning to coat, let the excess drip off, then place on the parchment-lined sheet.
- With the remaining caramel, drizzle thin zigzag lines over the apples with a fork, crossing them to make a web.
- Let set about 10 minutes until the coating hardens, then serve, warning that it's crunchy.
