Wash and Dry:
Start by giving those vibrant red apples a good wash and thorough drying to ensure a clean base for your candy coating. -
Prepare Sticks:
Remove the stems from the apples and replace them with sticks inserted halfway into each apple. This adds a fun and convenient way to enjoy your Mojhy Apples. -
Syrup Magic:
In a deep saucepan, combine the dark corn syrup, sugar, and water. Stir and cook over medium heat until the mixture is thoroughly dissolved, and the magic begins as it boils. -
Reaching the Sweet Spot:
Without stirring, let the mixture cook to the soft crack stage. Wondering how to know when it’s there? Look for threads that are hard but not brittle when dropped into cold water, or simply wait until the candy thermometer registers a tempting 280°F. -
A Dash of Flavor:
Remove the pan from heat, and add the vanilla extract. Gently stir, ensuring the extract is well incorporated. Place the pan over boiling water to keep the syrup at the perfect consistency. -
Dip and Twirl:
Now, the fun part! Take each prepared apple and dip it into the syrup. Embrace the art of twirling, ensuring the apple is thoroughly coated with the luscious syrup. Imagine creating a sweet masterpiece! -
Cooling Grace:
Place the syrup-coated apples on a buttered pan, sticks upright. Let them cool gracefully, allowing the candy coating to set and create a crunchy, sweet shell around each Mojhy Apple.
Voila! 🎉 You’ve just mastered the art of crafting Mojhy Apples, a delightful treat that blends the nostalgia of 1936 with the contemporary joy of indulging in a unique candy apple experience.
