Children AND Adults love this, I made this for a family get-together because it was a contrast to things that one usually has at family parties. It was a big hit. Many said, "Wow, why didn't I think of that!"

THIS WAS A GOOD RECIPE. ALOT MORE WORK THAN I THOUGHT BUT VERY GOOD. ONLY PROBLEM I HAD WAS THE OREOS SLIDING OFF THE APPLE BUT I SUPPOSE THERE IS A TRICK TO THAT.

Recipe is awesome. I made it for a Halloween Party at work. It was a HIT!! Only recommendation that I have is to use the microwave to melt the chocolate. I had thought that it should have been a drippy consistancy and was having issues.

Loved this recipe!!!!!!! Made it with my sister, and it was both fun and easy for both of us. I usually buy the already made caramel apples. But this year, I found this recipe and decided to make it ourselves. The Oreo Caramel Dipped Apples are VERY tasty!!!!! :)
