Red Candy Apples
- 2 c Sugar
- 3/4 cn Water
- 1/2 c Molasses; mild
- 1 tb Vinegar
- 1/2 ts Red food coloring
- 10 Apples
Combine all ingredients except food coloring and apples and cook until
mixture spins a thread or until candy stays on apple. (Mixture will be
thick) Add food coloring. Put a stick into apple and dip into mixture.
Place on a well greased cookie sheet, and allow to dry. Store in covered
container, or wrap with parchment paper or greased wrap. I suggest using
Gala, Paula Red, or any other super firm baking apples. This recipe
produces the closest I've seen to "State Fair" candy apples - those without
cinnamon flavoring.
