Carmel Apples

Fall time and Carmel apples seem to go hand in hand. Sitting around in the teacher's room last Friday many commented on the craving for a good Carmel apple. So, I thought I would share this wonderful recipe with all. This recipe happens to come from Grandma Walker. Her sister-in-law use to make and sale Carmel apples at the Idaho State Fair, and this was the recipe that she would use.
Not only can you do the traditional dipped apple with this, but cutting an apple up and drizzling it with this Carmel is delish. If you are feeling really indulgent then top it off with some whip cream, the kind you squirt from the can. Yum!
Carmel Apples
2 C. brown sugar
2 cubes butter
1 can condensed milk
1 C light Karo syrup

Cook stirring continually on stove top. Use a candy thermometer and cook til 240 degrees. When it reaches this temp. take off heat and add 10 large marshmallows. Stir until melted.

I also cook in a crockpot. Put all ing. in the crockpot on low. Cook for about 1 1/2. Stir a few times. When done then stir in 10 large marshmallows.
