Recipe 4 fall fun

4 girls and an easy caramel apple recipe:

1 1/2 Tbsp. butter
1 1/2 c. light brown sugar
6 Tbs. water (we used cream instead, a little more than 6 Tbsp., and were very happy with the results)
some kind of sticks--popsicle works
8-10 apples

Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the sugar and cream. Stir until it has a smooth consistency. Gently bring to boil, then cover and simmer for 3 minutes, until the pan sides are steamy and the mixture is thin but somewhat sticky. Remove from heat. Pierce the center of each apple with a stick, then swirl in the caramel syrup until coated. Place apples on a greased cookie sheet to harden. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours (okay, ours didn't make it that long).

Have fun!
