Description
Strawberry Shortcake Candy Apples made with tart apples dipped in creamy white chocolate, coated in strawberry and cookie crumbs, and finished with a sweet strawberry drizzle for a nostalgic treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 Granny Smith apples
- 6 wooden sticks or decorative straws
- 3 cups white chocolate melting wafers or white almond bark
- 1/2 cup strawberry-flavored candy melts
- 1 cup Golden Oreo cookies, crushed
- 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
- Fresh strawberry slices for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Wash and completely dry the apples, then insert wooden sticks securely into the tops.
- Melt white chocolate wafers in a microwave-safe bowl in 20–30 second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Prepare a shallow bowl with crushed Golden Oreos and freeze-dried strawberries mixed together.
- Dip each apple into the melted white chocolate, turning to coat evenly.
- Allow excess chocolate to drip off, then roll the bottom half of the apple in the strawberry-cookie mixture.

- Melt strawberry candy melts and drizzle over the apples.
- Gently press fresh strawberry slices onto the coating if using.
- Allow apples to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving.
Notes
