Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 c Sugar
3/4 Can water
1/2 c Mild molasses
1 tb Vinegar
1/2 ts Red food coloring
10 Apples
Combine all ingredients except food coloring and apples and cook
until mixture spins a thread or until candy stays on apple. Mixture
will be thick. Add food coloring. Put a stick into apple and dip into
mixture. Place on a well greased cookie sheet, and allow to dry.
Store in covered container, or wrap with parchment paper or greased
wrap. I suggest using Gala, Paula Red, or any other super firm baking
apples. This recipe produces the closest I've seen to "State Fair"
candy apples--those without cinnamon flavoring.
