Ingredients

4 large granny smith apples
4 sugar cones
6 ounces chocolate chips
1 tablespoon shortening
4 ounces caramels or almost ⅓ of an 11 oz. bag
4 lollipop sticks
4 jumbo cupcake or muffin liners
Sprinkles for garnish

Instructions

Use a microwave bowl and melt the chocolate chips and shortening in the microwave, heating and stirring at about 30 second intervals.
Cover the sugar cones with the melted chocolate using the side of a knife to smooth the chocolate out. Position the sprinkles around the "top" of the cone to serve as the brim of the hat.
Set the finished cones aside on a piece of waxed paper until completely cooled.
Wash and dry the apples, put a lollipop stick in the top of each one and place in a jumbo cupcake liner.
Combine the unwrapped caramels and water in a small sauce pan and warm over low heat until completely melted.
Use a spoon to drizzle caramel over each of the apples.
Place the hats on top of the apples taking care to cover the lollipop straws completely.
Set aside to cool and enjoy.
