Candy (Bad) Apples

I like to do a little something for the students that work for me on holidays like Valentine's, Halloween, Easter, etc. Last year I made each of them a caramel apple covered in crushed Butterfingers. I know, your mouth is watering, right?

Variety being the spice of life, I needed a new twist on the caramel apples this year. Oreos ... caramel and chocolate go wonderful together. I was proud of my flavor pairing and went on to create my wonderful masterpieces last night.

Except, they weren't so wonderful. The crushed up cookies wouldn't stick to the caramel, and once I forced it on there, they were UGLY. I'm talkin' U-G-L-Y, You Ain't Got No Alibi, Ugly!

So now it is back to square one. Poop!
