1/2 cup Water
1/8 teaspoon Lemon juice optional

Directions
Directions
Place the sugar, corn syrup, water and lemon juice into a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Stir just until all of the sugar is melted. Cook until the sugar reaches 320 degrees and golden brown. Remove from heat and slowly whisk in the heavy cream, careful it will spatter, then add the butter, vanilla and salt. Mix until fully incorporated. Let caramel cool until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Meanwhile put the Popsicle sticks into the apples and put the parchment paper on the sheet pan and generously spray with the cooking spray.
Dip the apples into the caramel and wipe of the excess using the side of the pan. Roll into desired toppings if desired the put on prepared parchment paper until cool. I like making these for Halloween so once cool you can put them in cellophane bags and tie them with orange or brown ribbon.
