Spiced Caramel Apple Delight






Spiced Caramel Apple Delight

1 Gala Apple, cored and chopped (peeling isn't necessary, but you can if you like)
1 Granny Smith Apple, cored and chopped
1/2 tsp. Cardamom
1/2 tsp. Cloves
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 Tbsp. Butter
2 Tbsp. Water
Directions for Apple Topping:
On low-medium heat, put butter in saucepan and add chopped apples and spices, and water... cover and let cook until apples are slightly transparent or golden in color. Turn off heat and use as a topping over vanilla ice-cream. Top it off with the caramel sauce. Delish!  Serve. Eat. Smile!

Caramel Sauce

1 Cup Sugar
1 Cube Butter
Pinch of Salt (optional)
3/4 C Heavy Whipping Cream (Note: If you don't have whipping cream in the carton, you can use pre-made whipped cream.  I have only tried this with 100% cream, no imitations. Just scoop about 1 cup of the pre-made whip cream and whisk into the caramel mixture.  Keep whisking until well combined.)
Directions for Caramel Sauce:
In large pot melt sugar on medium-high heat, while stirring constantly.  It helps to spread the sugar evenly on the bottom of the pot.  Sugar will melt.  Make sure it is completely dissolved before adding the cream.  When it begins to boil and turns amber in color add butter and salt.  Whisk until melted.  Turn off heat and add in whipping cream and whisk well.  Pour into jar and store in refrigerator.
