• Preheat oven to 350*.
• Roll cookie dough into a 12-inch circle on a 13" baking stone that has been lightly floured.

Steps:

• Mix the first 5 ingredients together in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until thick. Refrigerate until cooled.
• Peel and chop apples. Stir the apples, Kraft Cool Whip and 1 and 1/2 cups of the chopped peanuts into the the cooled mixture.
• Sprinkle top with remaining chopped peanuts.

Steps:

• Combine fruit in large bowl. Gently stir in COOL WHIP and marshmallows.
• Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Stir in nuts just before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• To Make Taffy:
• In a small bowl combine brown sugar, melted butter or margarine, and 1/3 cup flour.
• Mix well and set aside.
• To Make Apple Filling:
• Place apples in a large bowl.
• Add white sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
• Toss until all ingredients are mixed well and apples are thoroughly coated.
• Spoon half of apple filling into pastry-lined deep-dish pan.
• Top with half of caramels and half of taffy mixture.
• Repeat process with remaining apple filling, caramels and taffy mixture.
• Place top pastry over filling and seal well.
• This is very important, if edges are not sealed, caramel will leak out all over.
• Cut steam vents and brush top crust with milk or light cream.
• Cover pie with foil and place on a baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes.
• Remove foil from pie and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes, until crust is golden.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Insert one wooden pop stick (from bag of caramels) into stem end of each apple. Cover large plate with waxed paper; spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
• Place caramel bits in medium saucepan. Add water; cook on medium-low heat 3 min. or until caramel bits are completely melted, stirring constantly.
• Dip apples into melted caramel until evenly coated, spooning caramel over apples if necessary. Allow excess caramel to drip off. Scrape bottoms of apples; place on prepared plate. Refrigerate at least 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator 15 min. before serving. Store any leftover apples in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Stir everything together and serve with apple wedges. Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Peel and core the apples, leaving them whole. Cut the tops and bottoms off the apples to give them flat surfaces to rest on. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the sugar and cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until the mixture begins to turn golden brown and caramelized. Add the brandy and lemon juice and stir to blend. Adjust the heat so the mixture remains at a simmer. Place the apples in the liquid and simmer until the submerged portion is tender, about 15 minutes. Turn the apples over and cook until tender all the way through, about 15 minutes more. Remove from the liquid and set aside to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment or buttered waxed paper. Unroll the puff pastry on a work surface and brush the pastry with melted butter. In a small bowl, toss together the sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over the pastry. Working lengthwise, cut the pastry into 6 even strips, each 3/4-inch wide. Twist the strips, keeping the cinnamon sugar on the inside, to make long twisted "straws." Transfer to the prepared pan, run your fingers along the twists to straighten, and bake about 20 minutes, until puffed and golden brown.
• Pour the sugar into the center of a saucepan. Carefully pour the water around the sugar, trying not to splash any sugar onto the sides of the pan. Do not stir; gently draw your finger through the center of the sugar to moisten it. Over medium heat, bring to a boil without stirring. Cook until light caramel in color and immediately remove from the heat. Carefully (it will bubble up and may splatter) stir in the cream with a wooden spoon until smooth.
• To serve, place an apple on each serving plate. Drizzle with caramel sauce, sprinkle with peanuts, and place a pastry straw in the hole of each apple so that it sticks up like a wooden stick.

Steps:

• Mix 2 cups sugar, 1/4 cup light corn syrup and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring just until the sugar dissolves. Cook, swirling the pan (do not stir), until the mixture is light amber and a candy thermometer registers 320 degrees, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; slowly whisk in 1/2 cup heavy cream, then 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Return to low heat and whisk until smooth. Let cool until the caramel is thick enough to coat a spoon. Insert sticks into the stem ends of 6 apples and dip the apples into the caramel, letting the excess drip off. Roll in toppings if desired, then let cool on a parchment-lined baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
