Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Samoa Apple Slices
  1. Wash three large apples thoroughly and slice them into thick wedges or rounds, approximately half an inch thick. Brush them with lemon juice to prevent browning.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and spread the shredded coconut on a baking sheet. Toast for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown, stirring once.
  3. Combine the soft caramel candies and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring, until smooth and pourable, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
  4. Arrange the apple wedges on a serving platter and drizzle the melted caramel over them. Sprinkle the toasted coconut on top.
  5. In a clean bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 15-second bursts, stirring, until melted and smooth. Drizzle over the apple slices.
  6. Optional: Sprinkle sea salt over the drizzled chocolate for added flavor. Serve immediately for best texture.
