Even though lady apple season is during the fall, today is cold and grey and reminded me of a carmel apple recipe Daniel made during the holidays. French ladies would carry them in their purses for their sweet floral aroma.
Daniel started with 4 dozen lady apples, and put skewers vertically through the core. Next he dipped the apples into a Guinness carmel sauce. After melting 4 cups of sugar in a heavy bottomed sauce pan, he mixed in the Guinness and two tablespoons of butter, along with a pinch of salt.
Allow the carmel to set slightly on greased parchment paper. While still slightly warm, roll or dip your apples in your desired toppings. Daniel used toasted hazel nuts and applewood smoked bacon with micro mint garnish for his, but you can use chocolate chips, popcorn, honey oats, or anything you can think of.
