RED CANDY APPLES
2 cups sugar
3/4 can water
1/2 cup mild molasses
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon red food coloring
10 apples*
Combine all ingredients except food coloring and apples and cook until mixture spins a thread or until candy stays on apple. (Mixture will be thick.)
Add food coloring.
Put a stick into apple and dip into mixture.
Place on a well greased cookie sheet, and allow to dry.
Store in covered container, or wrap with parchment paper or greased wrap.
*I suggest using Gala, Paula Red, or any other super firm baking apples.
This recipe produces the closest I've seen to "State Fair" candy apples - those without cinnamon flavoring.
