You will need:

  • Apples
  • Apple cutter

Wash & Dry Apples

Cut Apples

  • Use an apple cutter to cut apples into wedges. The apple cutter will easily remove the core of the apple and give you what you can consume.
  • A knife can also be used. Cut one inch away from the center to keep away from the core.

Soak Apples in Lemon Juice

  • Soak the apples in lemon juice for 5-10 minutes. This will prevent the apples from browning.
  • Remove from the juice and dry completely.

Dip Apples in Chocolate

  • If you are using semi sweet chocolate chips, place them in the microwave until melted.

Refrigerate Apples Briefly

  • For the chocolate to dry, place apples in the refrigerator for approximately 5-10 minutes.
  • It is important not to keep them in for too long or the chocolate could crack when brought back to room temperature.
