How to Make Caramel Apple Bites
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. On a baking sheet, lay out pretzels in a single layer and place a Rolo candy on each pretzel. Put these in the oven for about 3-4 minutes, or until the candy is soft but not melted.
Chop the apple in small chunks. Squeeze a little lemon juice on them if you would like to help keep from turning brown. Place one apple on the end of a toothpick and push into one of the Rolo Pretzels. Repeat until all the Rolo pretzels have apples.
This recipe is great because it allows you to make as many or as few as you need for your party. Since the directions are so simple, you don’t have to worry about messing them up. The presentation is easy with these, because how can you go wrong with Rolos and pretzels?!

This is the best sweet treat ever! It has all the flavors of Halloween, but it’s much easier to eat than traditional caramel apples.

That is all kinds of awesome. It’s basically bite sized caramel apples. I love it. No more cleaning up my youngest for an hour after he has a caramel apple.

These sound so good! I need to pick up some apples to use for treats like this. Using the Rolos and pretzels was a great idea.

These look good and I’m sure kids will love them. I remember caramel apples when I was a kid and those things were way too hard to eat! 🙂

I like this idea. I can never eat an entire caramel apple by myself so this would be the perfect size. I can see adding some sprinkles or caramel drizzle too. Yum!
