These Poison Candy Apples are the perfect addition to your Halloween treat line up. Kids love them, adults will swoon over them and they make you look the Halloween host of the century.
Wash and dry the apples and place sticks into them and set aside.
Prepare the cookie sheet with parchment or wax paper. Spray with oil lightly.
Using a medium sauce pan place the sugar, corn syrup, water and cinnamon at medium heat.
Bring to a rolling boil until crack stage is reached. 300 degrees (I always let mine go 10 degrees higher it helps the candy have a crisp snap). If you don't have a candy thermometer use a cup or small glass filled halfway with water. Once candy cooks for approx. 10 min use a spoon. Dip into the mixture and let some drop into the water. If the candy hardens immediately it is at crack stage.
When candy is ready, separate half into another saucepan. Add one color of food coloring to each saucepan.
