Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large baking apples (like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 8 pieces Mini candy bars (Snickers, Milky Way, etc.)
- 4 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 4 teaspoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Water
- 0 Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Wash the apples and use an apple corer or a paring knife to carefully remove the core, creating a hollow center without cutting all the way through the bottom. Ensure the apples can hold the filling without leaking.
Step 3
Place the prepared apples in a baking dish, keeping them upright.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Mix well.
Step 5
Stuff the hollowed-out centers of each apple with 2 mini candy bars of your choice. Gently press them in.
Step 6
Add 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture on top of the candy bars in each apple.
Step 7
Top each apple with 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter to enhance the flavor and richness.
Step 8
Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of the baking dish to create steam and prevent the apples from drying out during baking.
Step 9
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to trap the steam, then bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Step 10
After 25 minutes, carefully remove the foil and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the apples are soft and tender. The candy bars should be melted and gooey inside.
Step 11
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the apples cool slightly for about 5 minutes before serving.
Step 12
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
