Carnival Fun: Making Homemade Candy Apples with Mom

Mommy for my birthday
can we have a carnival? here at our house?
yeah. well
what is it that you like about carnivals?
candy apples
oh well
we can definitely make those
first we’re gonna slice up our apples
why did you get green apples?
these are called Granny Smith and they’re a little bit sour
so they go really well with the caramel
now we’re gonna make our caramel sauce
Mmm I love caramel
you wanna help me peel them? yes
alright last one
now we’re gonna add about 1/4 cup of milk into the microwave for 1 minute
our caramel is ready. Mmm
that looks so good. we’ve got our apples
our caramel sauce and our toppings
chocolate chips, marshmallows
sprinkles and should we do nerds?
yes
I love nerds
here’s the fun part. we’re gonna take an apple slice
insert our skewer from one end to the next like this
we’re gonna dip it into our caramel sauce
look at that. wow. I’m gonna do nerds
oh look at how cute this is
dip it in and then take it out
which topping do you wanna do first?
um marshmallow
alright dip it like this
ah look how cute this is
and we’ll put it on our tray
I’m gonna do the sprinkles this time
look how pretty that is. let’s try chocolate chips
look at how cute these are
I think a carnival party is a great idea
what else should we have? I wanna have circus elephants!
