Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings
- apple
- sugar 220g
- jocheong 80g
- unsalted butter 40g
- salt 1g
- heavy cream 200g
- rainbow sprinkles
Recipe 🍳
- In a frying pan, measure and add 220g sugar, 80g jocheong, 50g water, 40g unsalted butter, and 1g salt. Gently melt over medium heat.
- Once the sugar and butter are completely melted and the mixture turns a light brown color and begins to bubble, pour in 200g of heavy cream.
- Stir with a spatula to prevent burning, and boil until the caramel deepens to a rich brown color to complete the caramel sauce.
- Dip a whole apple (thoroughly washed and a wooden stick inserted deep into it) into the caramel sauce, coating it evenly on all sides.
- Lift the apple briefly to let excess caramel drip off and cool slightly, then roll it over a bed of rainbow sprinkles spread on a tray or plate to decorate the surface.
- Once the caramel coating has hardened, use a knife to slice the apple into bite-sized pieces and serve.
- Boil sugar, jocheong, water, butter, and salt until it turns brown; then add heavy cream and stir until thickened.
- Coat a stick-pierced whole apple evenly with warm caramel sauce, then let it cool slightly.
- Roll it in rainbow sprinkles to coat evenly, let it set, then slice into bite-sized pieces and serve.
Cooking tips 💡
- After adding the heavy cream, the caramel sauce can burn quickly, so reduce the heat and stir continuously to prevent burning.
- If the apple skin retains moisture or wax, the caramel will slide off and not coat properly. After washing, dry the apple completely.
- Besides sprinkles, you can also coat with chopped peanuts, almond slivers, or crushed cookies for a crunchy, nutty texture variation.
