Apple Nachos

If you know me you know I love crack apples... and if you don't know me you are now wondering, why does Deidre love crack? Well. By crack I mean caramel apples, and not just any, the ones specifically from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory that are so addicting I would compare them to a drug. Adam, being the smart man he is, decided to surprise me with a treat on Sunday. Not just a treat. An apple nacho treat. Combining my two favorite things. Nachos and caramel apples. Apple nachos. Not with cheese. With caramel and chocolate. We are still working on perfecting our nacho combo but for now all I can say is it was SO good.

6 Apples || We used Granny Smith

Chocolate flavored Almond bark
