- 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
- 1/4 cup chopped peanuts or pecans
- Mini marshmallows (optional)
- Sprinkles (optional)
- Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Wash and thinly slice the Granny Smith apples. Arrange them in a single layer on your serving platter.

- Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Drizzle the warm caramel sauce over the apple slices, followed by the melted chocolate.
- Sprinkle chopped nuts, mini marshmallows, and sprinkles (if using) over the top. Add a pinch of sea salt for a flavor boost.

Notes
To prevent apples from browning, toss them in a mixture of lemon juice and water before assembling. Warm caramel and chocolate slightly for smooth drizzling but avoid overheating.
