Ingredients:

Serving

4 large apples, washed and dried
1 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
1 (14 oz) package caramel candies (non-creamy type works best )
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tsp shortening (crisco )
4 wooden popsicle sticks (available in crafts stores) or 4 lollipop sticks (available in crafts stores)

Directions:

Remove stems from apples and insert stick into each apple. Set aside.
Place chopped nuts into small pie pan or dish. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt caramels with 2 tablespoons water, stirring until smooth. Reduce heat to the lowest setting just to keep caramel melted (if using an electric stove turn off but keep pan on burner ).
Preparing one apple at a time, dip apple into the melted caramel, twirling to remove excess. Immediately roll caramel coated apple into the nuts.
Place on wax paper to set, while preparing the remainder of the apples.
Put chocolate chips and shortening in small microwave safe bowl.Melt on high for 30 seconds to one minute. Pour melted chocolate into a thick large plastic bag (ziplock baggies works well).
Snip a tiny hole in corner of bag and drizzle chocolate over apples, while holding and turning apple to cover all sides.
Chill for 2 hours to set.
