-Shown below is a commonly used recipe for candy apples.
2 - cups light brown sugar
2/3 to 1 cup - water
1 - tablespoon light corn syrup
1/2 - teaspoon lemon extract
3 - dashes of fresh cinnamon
6 to 8 apples with sticks (skewered)
Combine all ingredients except the lemon extract into a small, deep saucepan. Mix with a wooden spoon to evenly distribute the ingredients; place over medium high heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Be sure that all the ingredients come to a boil and reach about 290° to 300° on your candy thermometer.
