Butterscotch Candy Apples
Butterscotch Candy Apples | Crunchy delicious butterscotch coating encased around a juicy crisp apple! Perfect for your Thanksgiving table!
Remind your guest of the wonderful time they had on Thanksgiving long after they left! Add a “thankful” tag to each apple and place on each guests plate as a little gift from you to them. Make the tag in the shape of a leaf to complete the apple look. Give your apple a rustic look by using twigs. I didn’t have any twigs so I used food coloring and painted my sticks brown.
