Preparation

Step 1

Place apple cubes in a microwave-safe cup or mug. Top with Red Hots – the more you use, the hotter the results! Cover and microwave for 2 minutes. Stir well. Re-cover and microwave for 1 to 2 minutes, until apple cubes are soft.
 
Mix well. Let cool, at least 10 minutes. Top with crushed graham crackers and cinnamon. Enjoy!
