Failed Attempt......


Several weeks ago the male child and i had this wonderful idea to make candied apples with the skin removed.......sound good?

He peeled......i cooked the candy sauce......he dropped bits of the candy sauce into water, checking to make sure we had it "just" right......i held the pot.....he dipped.....

Easy!......Fun!

What we didn't count on was the "juice"!!

When hot candy is placed on naked apples.......the juice inside rushes to the surface...

And what your left with is cold, skinless apples .... sitting in a diluted cinnamon flavored bath!

But.....here's where we failed!!!....

We threw them away......we should have cut them up....placed them in the dehydrator and made dried candy apple slices.......

The shame.....our creativity had taken a nose-dive......

Maybe next time.....

And ohhhh yah.......there will be a next time!!!

Enjoy
