Poke a toothpick or cake pop stick into the top of each grape. Prepare a large baking sheet (I used 11x17) with parchment paper.
Be sure nuts are in a shallow bowl or on a plate. You will need to roll the grapes in them later.
Place caramel chews and heavy whipping cream inside a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on 50% power for 1 minute. Stir with a fork and return to the microwave. Continue to microwave in 30 second bursts, stirring in between, until caramel is silky smooth.
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream, 2.22 ounce package of Werther’s Original Soft Caramel Chews
Dip grapes about ¾ into the melted caramel. Allow excess caramel to drip off and wait 10-20 seconds for the caramel to cool slightly and form to the grape.
25 seedless green grapes
Without placing the grape down, roll the grape in the bed of crushed nuts so that it covers 1⁄2 of the grape. You want to visually see a nice caramel rim towards the top of the grape for aesthetics.
½ cup crushed nuts
Repeat for each grape and allow the caramel to set inside the refrigerator (about 30 minutes) before enjoying.

Storage:

To Store: Store these caramel apple grapes inside the refrigerator while not serving so the caramel stays firm.

Tips:

Make sure your grapes are completely dry before coating or the caramel won’t stick to them.
Allow the caramel to drip off of the grape slowly. The more hot caramel on the grape, the more it will pull downward and rest at the bottom of the grape. The caramel and nuts will pool below.
To get a solid caramel rim, allow the caramel to rest on the grape for a few seconds before rolling in the bed of nuts.
You must use parchment paper when serving your snacks because the caramel will stick to glass, porcelain, and metal plates and platters. To serve, cut parchment paper to the size of your serving tray and lay it down first.
These are best served chilled.
