The end of summer and beginning of fall can be an odd spot. You have those chilly mornings and nights, but the afternoons are still blazing hot! That’s the perfect time of year for these Caramel Apple Floats!
Caramel Apple Floats are amazing. Think of a root beer float, which is great for summer, but all creamy and delicious like an apple pie in a cup, and that’s what this is! They’re so simple to make, and perfect for the fall. They would even make a great treat for Thanksgiving Day too!
Caramel Apples are an awesome fall treat, but they can be hard to eat. Caramel Apple Floats are a great way to get all the flavor of a caramel apple, but easy to eat with a spoon. Plus, ice cream just makes everything better in my book!
