Chocolate Turtle Apple Slices are thick slices of Fuji apples covered in melted chocolate, drizzled with caramel and topped with nuts. And I love that there are just 5 ingredients in this recipe. Keeping it simple is always the best way to go when possible!

- 2 very large Fuji apples

- 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Preparation
- Slice apples into ½" pieces. With a knife make a little slit in the bottom of each apple slice to make it easier to insert a popsicle stick.

- Place caramels in microwave safe bowl and microwave on high for 45-60 seconds. Do NOT overheat. Stir until smooth. Drizzle melted caramel over chocolate and sprinkle with nuts.
