Poison Apple Recipes

POISON APPLES

Steps:

• Poke a hole into stem end of each apple, and insert a clean 5-inch twig, small dowel, or skewer into each hole. Set pistachios on a plate. Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Place sugar and corn syrup in a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until mixture is dark gold, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and slowly drizzle in heavy cream, stirring vigorously. Let stand for 5 minutes.
• Dip 1 apple into caramel to coat bottom third, and remove immediately, allowing excess to drip off bottom. Dip caramel-coated apple into pistachios, using your fingers to help nuts stick to caramel. Transfer coated apple to oiled baking sheet, nut side down. Repeat with remaining apples, caramel, and pistachios. Let apples stand until set, about 30 minutes.
• Place melted chocolate in a resealable plastic bag. Snip off the tip of one bottom corner to form a very small hole. Holding 1 apple by the twig, drizzle lines of chocolate onto apple, and let stand until chocolate is set, 5 to 10 minutes. Repeat with remaining apples and chocolate.

POISON APPLES

Steps:

• Remove any stems from the apples by twisting them off or snipping with kitchen shears. Place the apples on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Firmly press treat sticks into the center of the stem end of each apple.
• In a medium pot, combine the sugar, corn syrup, water and food coloring. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring. Once it simmers, stir in the vanilla extract, stop stirring and attach a candy thermometer. Use a pastry brush dipped in cool water to brush around the sides of the pot so they are totally clean and free of any sugar granules.
• Continue to boil the sugar over medium heat until it reaches 300 degrees F, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes until it reaches 275 degrees F.
• Dip 1 apple into the hot sugar syrup, holding onto the treat stick, and dipping so that at least 3/4 of the apple is coated. Lift the apple out of the syrup, allowing the excess to drip back into the pot, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet stick-side up.
• Repeat with the remaining apples, tilting the apple and/or the pot, as needed, as you use up more of the syrup. If the syrup gets too thick, it can be gently reheated over medium-low heat. Don't stir, just gently swirl the pot over the heat until it becomes fluid again.
• Let the apples cool completely, about 3 hours, before serving. Slice each apple into 8 wedges to make them easier on the teeth!

POISON CANDIED APPLES

Steps:

• Wash and dry the apples and remove the stems. Insert a wooden twig into each apple about halfway through. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the sugar, corn syrup, 1/2 teaspoon of the blue food coloring, 1/2 teaspoon of the red food coloring and 1 cup water to a small saucepot and stir together. Attach a candy thermometer to the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. (Do not stir once the sugar starts to boil.) Boil until the mixture reaches 295 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat and add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon blue food coloring and 1/2 teaspoon red food coloring, using a wooden skewer to swirl a figure eight in the pot and being careful not to blend.
• Immediately dip the apples into the mixture, carefully tilting the pot as necessary to coat. Allow any excess coating to drip back into the pot, then place the apples on the parchment-lined baking sheet to set, about 1 hour.

POISON APPLE MARTINI

Steps:

• Fill a cocktail shaker with crushed ice; add vodka, cranberry-apple juice, and pomegranate juice. Cover and shake until the outside of the shaker has frosted. Strain into a chilled glass. Garnish with apple slice and a small chip of dry ice for effect.

SNOW WHITE POISON CANDY APPLES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Insert a lollipop stick into the stem end of each apple.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
• Add the sugar, water, and corn syrup to a medium saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then cook until the temperature reaches 300°F (150°C), about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the red food coloring.
• Dip the apples in the syrup to coat entirely, then set on the prepared baking sheet. Let cool until the candy hardens, about 5 minutes.
• Add the green candy melts to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on low power in 20-second intervals, stirring between, until melted. Stir in the canola oil until smooth. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a squeeze bottle. Let cool for 5 minutes more, or until the candy sets quickly when squeezed out of the bottle.
• Use the melted candy to draw eyes and a mouth on each apple, then outline the rest of the apple above the very bottom and fill in the space outside the eyes and mouth.
• Let set for 10-15 minutes, until completely hardened.
• Enjoy!
