["Kitchen Notes: Be careful not to drive the handle all the way through the apple, or the juice will soften the caramel at the point where the apple is punctured. The caramel is extremely hot, so make sure to have a bowl of ice water nearby in case you burn yourself.", "", "Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and butter or oil the foil lightly, or line with a nonstick liner. Push a lollipop stick into each apple. I use the bottom of a heavy mug to \"hammer\"" in the sticks. Set aside.""
