Kids of all ages will love
these sweet chocolatey and peanut flavored-covered apples.
Choco-Peanut
Butter Apples
- 10 wooden popsicle sticks
10 medium tart apples, stems removed
1 (10-ounce) package peanut butter chips
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2/3 cup powdered sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
Chopped dry roasted peanuts
- Insert wooden stick into
each washed and thoroughly dried apple.
- Cover a cookie sheet with
wax paper.
- Stir together peanut butter
chips and oil in medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH
1 1/2 minutes or until chips are softened. Stir until melted.
If necessary, microwave at HIGH an additional 15 seconds at a
time, stirring after each heating, just until chips are melted
when stirred.
- In a small bowl, combine
powdered sugar and cocoa and then gradually add dry mixture to
melted chip mixture, stirring until smooth. Microwave at HIGH
1 minute or until very warm.
- Dip apples in mixture;
twirl to remove excess coating. (If coating becomes too thick,
return to microwave for a few seconds.)
- Roll lower half of coated
apple in chopped peanuts, if desired.
- Allow to cool on prepared
cookie sheet. Store in refrigerator.
Makes 10 apples.
