Chocolate Dipped Apples

These are unbelievably good and even better with a little bit of carmel to add to it.

* 2 tablespoons lemon juice
* 2 cups water
* 3 large apples, cored and cut into 1/2 inch wedges
* 1 cup chocolate chips
* 3 tablespoons butter or
* 1 bottle prepared hardening chocolate sauce (such as Magic Shell)

Preparation:

* 1) Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
* 2) In a large bowl, combine lemon juice and water. Place apples in lemon juice mixture. Toss to coat apples with lemon juice mixture. Set aside.
* 3) If you don’t have a microwave, skip this step and use hardening chocolate instead. Place chocolate chip and butter in a microwave safe dish. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir well. If chocolate is not completely melted, microwave on high for 20 seconds more and stir. Repeat until chips are melted.
* 4) Place apple slices on a paper towel and pat dry with another paper towel.
* 5) If you made your own chocolate sauce, dip apple slices halfway into chocolate mixture and place on baking sheet. If you are using hardening chocolate sauce, arrange apple slices on baking sheet and drizzle with chocolate.
* 6) Refrigerate apple slices for about 1 hour or until chocolate has set.

How to Make a Chocolate Crumb Crust

This pie crust is very easy to do. So easy that you may never want to buy one again.

1 package chocolate cookie wafers
1/4 cup of sugar
1/3 cup of butter melted


Position a rack in the middle of your oven and heat it to 450 degrees. Select a 9 inch pie plate (preferably glass).
Crush wafers into fine crumbs. You can break them into pieces in a food processor and process until fine or put them into a zip lock bag and beat the crap out of them. In a mixing bowl combine crumbs, sugar, butter using a fork until all ingredients are slightly moistened. Press the crumb mixture into the sides of the pie plate with your fingers. Bake in the oven for 5 minutes and then allow to cool and chill before filling with what ever goodies your heart desires.
