Cannabis
Infused Caramel Apples
On Halloween, all adults enjoy reminiscing that joyful time in
their childhood memories about running around the neighborhood, dressed in
their favorite costume, collecting candies from the neighbors. Now as adults
it’s even more fun when you get to dress up in your favorite costume and go to
a friends Halloween party. Want to know the perfect treat to share with all
your ghoul friends? Who doesn’t love a Cannabis infused caramel apple! With
sprinkles!?
When you show up with these delightful infused caramel apples, the
party is sure to get cranking! Delicious, nutritious, sweet, and medicated;
there is no turning down a childhood - turned adult - favorite treat! Who
knows, it might persuade the judges to pick your costume as the best one!
Add these items to your grocery list and let’s make some tasty
treats. Make sure to double the recipe ingredients if you need to make more.
- 1 bag of Caramel (11-13oz)
- Sprinkles
- 5-6 apples
- Sticks for holding and dipping the apple
- Cannabis infused oil or RSO
First thing you want to do is unwrap all of the caramel pieces and
throw the wrappers in the trash, place the caramel pieces in a saucepan on the
stove on Med-low heat. Add 2 tbsp of water. I usually start with the heating unit
at medium and turn it down lower as the caramel starts to melt. Keep an eye on
the caramel and stir with a fork occasionally, you don’t want the mixture to
get too hot, or boiling for too long, you want to melt the candy in with the
water and stir occasionally until the mixture is nice and smooth.
While the caramel is melting, go ahead and set up the apples by
washing and drying them. Then, put a stick in them to hold them in place for
dipping, the stick will also be the treat holder. Prepare a pan, lined with
parchment paper. I put my apple treats in the fridge to cool faster, if you
want to do this think about how much space is in the fridge for the pan to go
into. However, you do not need to refrigerate these apples to get the caramel
to harden. Pour the sprinkles in a flat dish for easy rolling of the apple.
Once the mixture is smooth add some cannabis oil or RSO into the
melted caramel. Dosing very low because you want to make these infused treats
for fun and we don’t want to accidentally dose too high. I personally prefer a
dropper full of cannabis oil with THC and CBD. If I was using RSO, I would go
with a small rice grain size, as it is more potent. The dosing size depends on
the potency of your cannabis.
After the caramel dip, roll the coated caramel apple in sprinkles.
Less is more when it comes to sprinkles. They don’t taste super yummy, but they
sure look cute!
Last, place the caramel- sprinkled apple upright on the prepared pan. You’ll want to move fast because once the heat is turned off on the caramel it tends to harden quickly. You can choose to either let them sit out and dry or stick them in the fridge for at least 20 minutes to harden faster.
I hope you all have a very fun, and safe Halloween! Cheers!
