Granny Smith apples are my favorite, but they sure can be tart!  Add caramel and peanut butter and the tartness is a thing of the past!

Ingredients:

• Granny Smith Apples (or whatever kind you prefer)

Directions:

1. Rinse and dry apples, remove stem and insert Popsicle sticks.
2. Use enough wax paper to accommodate two apples.
3. In a medium sauce pan add peanut butter, caramel sauce and caramel squares and stir until ingredients are incorporated and still thick you want a spreadable consistency. Remove from heat and let cool.
4. Slice apples, but keep then in the order you sliced them so you can stack them back in the same order.
