Toffee Apples: the classic British recipe for a snack or candy of apples coated in sugar, molasses and syrup toffee in a cellophane wrapper.
Ingredients:
8 medium eating apples
450g demerara sugar
75g butter
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
100g black treacle (molasses)
100g golden syrup
Method:
Add the sugar to a pan along with 150ml water. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves then add all the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
Push a sturdy wooden kebab stick into each apple. Then continue boiling the toffee mixture until the temperature, as measured by a confectioner's thermometer reaches 143°C.
Dip the apples in the toffee at this point and twirl around for a few seconds to coat them evenly. Allow the excess toffee to drip off then transfer onto a buttered baking sheet and allow to cool. Consume within 24 hours of making.
