1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup water
5 or 6 baking apples (with sticks)

1. In medium saucepan, melt butter or margarine.
2. Stir in sugar, syrup, vanilla and water.  
3. Bring mixture to a boil and keep boiling for about 3 minutes, until a candy thermometer reads 245 F.
4. Remove caramel from heat.  Put a popsicle stick in the center of each apple. When the mixture has stopped bubbling, swirl each apple in the caramel syrup to coat.  Place apples on a well greased cookie sheet to harden. 
5. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours before wrapping with plastic wrap or cellophane.
