Bite-size Caramel Apples

Bite-size Caramel Apples

1 bag (11 oz.) KRAFT Caramel Bits
2 Tbsp. water Make apple rounds with melon baller.

INSERT one candy stick into each apple round. Cover plate with waxed paper; spray with cooking spray. Set aside. PLACE caramel bits in medium saucepan. Add water; cook on medium-low heat 3 min. or until caramel bits are completely melted, stirring constantly. DIP apples into melted caramel until evenly coated, spooning caramel over apples if necessary. Allow excess caramel to drip off. Scrape bottoms of apples; place on prepared plate. Refrigerate at least 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator 15 min. before serving. Store any leftover apples in refrigerator * Could also be used with candy apple recipe

2 cups white sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 1/2 cups water
8 drops red food coloring
