Ingredients
- 6 wooden pop sticks
- 6 small Gala apples
- 1 package (14 ounces) caramels
- 2 tablespoons 2% milk
- 20 Oreo cookies, coarsely crushed
- 1 package (10 ounces) dark chocolate chips

Dip apples in caramel mixture, coating completely. Place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet; let stand until set, about 10 minutes.

Dip apples in chocolate mixture, allowing excess to drip off; dip in cookies, rolling to coat. Return to baking sheet; refrigerate until set, about 15 minutes. Cut into wedges to serve.
