APPLE PROSCIUTTO BRUSCHETTA

Apple Prosciutto Bruschetta image

This is a simple but delicious holiday appetizer. I use Honeycrisp apples but you can use whatever apples you have handy. For adult parties, I add a splash of cream sherry wine for an extra special flavor. -Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada
