Ingredients

3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2-1/2 cups crispy chow mein noodles (about 6 ounces)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
10 small apples
10 wooden pop sticks
10 Nutter Butter cookies, halved crosswise
2 packages (14 ounces each) caramels, unwrapped
1/4 cup 2% milk
Assorted candies and decorations: Mega and milk chocolate M&M's, black shoestring licorice, miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Place noodles in a large bowl. Drizzle with butter and sprinkle with sugar mixture; toss to coat. Spread in a parchment-lined 15x10-in. baking pan. Bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown, stirring once. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
Remove and discard stems from apples; insert pop sticks into tops. Line a baking sheet with parchment. For feet, arrange 10 pairs of cookie halves on parchment.
Place caramels and milk in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave, covered, on high for 3 minutes, stirring once. Cool slightly. Dip each apple in caramel mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Immediately press chow mein noodles over top and back of apple; place apple on a pair of cookies. Decorate as desired.
