Apple Dumplings

I am participating in Kelly's "Show us your Life-Desserts". I posted this recipe a while back, but wanted to share it again!

I love it when I find a new, easy, yummy recipe! My mom made these awesome Apple Dumplings for us this weekend and I just had to share!!!! They are so easy to prepare and will make a great dessert or breakfast food. I promise you that they will be a hit no matter what time of day you eat them :o)

Sorry, my picture isn't the best, but you get the point....

Apple Dumplings

2 packages of Crescent Rolls (do not let them get room temp-need to be cold and firm)

1-1/4 cup of sugar

2 Granny Smith apples

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1-1/2 sticks of butter

1 cup of Mt. Dew

Preheat oven to 350

Peel and slice apples into 8 slices each (we use an apple wedge).

Wrap each slice in a crescent roll triangle and place in baking pan.

Combine butter, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla in a saucepan and cook on medium low, stirring until it becomes a gravy-like consistency.

Pour the mixture over the wrapped apples then pour the Mt. Dew over that.

Bake for 30 minutes then place a piece of aluminum foil loosely over the pan and bake for 15 more minutes.

ENJOY!!!!

For additional satisfaction, top with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream and dig in! :o)
