Apple Dumplings

Time sure can get away from us doesn't it? I can't believe its been so long since my last post. We have been super busy with buying a new house, getting another dog and lots of family get-to-gethers. I haven't been cooking as much this summer but I have tried out a few new recipes.

One of my favorite fall activities is going to the apple orchard and picking apples. My sister in law and I have gone the last two years and have a great time. So I love to bake with all these extra apples. This time I made some apple dumplings with a recipe I got from my mom. Its easy and delicious.

• 4 Granny Smith apples
• 2 cans Crescent rolls
• 2 sticks butter
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• Can of Mountain Dew

Peel and quarter apples. Wrap one triangle of crescent rolls around each apple slice. Place in ungreased 9x13 dish. Melt butter and mix in sugar and cinnamon. Spread over rolls. Pour can of Mountain Dew around edges of dish. Bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes. 

So easy and they taste like little apple pies! And what would apple pie be without vanilla ice cream?
