The Freshman Cook: Battered Chocolate Caramel Apple Slices / #appleweek

With State Fair season coming up soon, I thought it would be fun to come up with a yummy treat, like you might see at the fair. These Battered Chocolate Caramel Apple Slices are easy to make, and they are tasty too! I used a boxed pancake mix, but I’m sure a homemade recipe will work also. What I love about these is that the pancake coating is light and fluffy, but the apple stays crisp and delicious! These are such fun!
Battered Chocolate Caramel Apple Slices (printable recipe at end of page) (makes 8 slices)

Pancake Mix 

1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 Rainier HoneyCrisp Apple
1/2 cup Flour
Stick to insert in Apple Slices
Vegetable Oil for frying 
Chocolate
Caramel Mix pancake batter according to package directions.
Add vanilla to batter. Also add a tablespoon of water at a time to the mix until it is smooth and a little thinner.
 Core the apple.
Place apple slices in a bowl of water.
 Measure the flour and place in a bowl.
 Add a stick to each apple. Dip apple in flour and lightly coat it.
 Dip apple into batter. Let it drip off the loose batter. It should stop dripping after a few drips.
Place apples in oil and fry. Your oil should be at 350 degrees. Turn the apples while they are in the oil. It should only take a few minutes to fry. After taking the apples from the fryer, place them on paper towels to dry.
Melt chocolate and caramels in double boilers. 
Drizzle the apples with chocolate and caramel however you want. I drizzled with chocolate first, refrigerated them and then drizzled them with caramel and refrigerated them again. I think sprinkles would be cute on top of the chocolate and caramel, and so would powdered sugar!

Enjoy!
