I love making and eating Caramel apples for a fun fall treat, but I hate heating the caramel on the stove. It either gets burnt, or too hot, or I don’t get it just right for dipping. This crockpot method is a fool proof way for caramel apples. Decorate them with some sprinkle or some chocolate chips to make them extra special!
