Bottling sweet Cider that won't explode bottles. fermentation

Hey all,

First post on this sub and I couldn't find anything in the search function on my exact question so here it goes...

In my last batch of cider, I waited until the airlock stopped bubbling as fast and then tasted it. It was good but it seemed very dry and not as sweet as I am looking for. If I add sugar or bottle the cider a little earlier when it's sweeter, I imagine I dramatically increase the possibility of my glass bottles exploding. I could pasteurize/campden the bottles at the right sugar levels but then there is no carbonation.

TL;DR How do I brew my cider to be sweet, carbonated, and not explode in the refrigerator?
