Spooky Honey Caramel Drizzle for Apples
Get ready to take your fall treats to the next level with this deliciously spooky Honey Caramel Drizzle! Perfect for drizzling over apples or dipping them in, this recipe makes your Halloween festivities, well, all the more festive. 🎃
Ingredients:
- 1 cup honey
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of sea salt
- 1/4 tsp black food coloring (optional, for spooky effect)
- Apples for serving
Instructions:
-
Prepare Your Pot: In a medium saucepan, combine honey, heavy cream, and butter over medium heat. Stir constantly until the butter melts and everything blends together smoothly.
-
Bring to a Boil: Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a soft boil, stirring frequently. Keep cooking for about 5-7 minutes until the honey mixture thickens and turns golden.
-
Add Vanilla & Salt: Remove the saucepan from heat, and carefully stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt. If you want to add a spooky twist, mix in the black food coloring here to give it a dark, eerie vibe.
-
Cool It Down: Let the honey mixture cool for a few minutes—it will thicken more as it cools. If it gets too thick, you can gently reheat it to make it more pourable.
-
Drizzle or Dip: Once the mixture has cooled a bit, drizzle it over sliced apples or dip whole apples in for a more traditional "caramel" apple appearance.
