A boozy apple treat is a great way to celebrate fall. These Caramel Apple Shots will be a huge party hit. They are a little tricky to make, but they taste and look so good!
Tips For Making Caramel Apple Shots
- Make them well in advance. It will take a while for them to set up.
- You will need to coat the apple slices with lemon juice to prevent them from turning brown.
- You can arrange the apple halves cut side up in a muffin tin to help hold them steady.
- When dissolving the gelatin in the apple cider, be sure not to let the mixture get too hot or the gelatin will not set up.
- I like the tart flavor of Granny Smith apples for this recipe, but you can use a different apple.
