Time 45m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (8 ounce) cans crescent roll dough (8 ct. each)
2 apples, peeled and cored
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon, to taste

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Wash the apples, peel and cut into eight equal slices or segments.
Unwrap the crescent roll and separate the triangles.
Place a piece of apple on each triangle of dough (on a wider side) and roll it in a croissant. You can wrap it like a crescent roll or you can wrap the dough over the apple slice covering the whole apple (dumpling style), either way.
Place each dumpling in an 11 x 13-inch baking dish that has been sprayed with Pam or coated with a stick of butter.
In a sauce pan, combine water, butter, sugar, and vanilla and heat to a rolling boil.
Pour boiling mixture over the dumpling and sprinkle dumplings with cinnamon.
Place uncovered in 350 degree oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until they become golden brown.
Serve immediately and top with cool whip. Or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, mmmmm -- Ah-mazing !
WARNING: Prepare this dish at your own risk. It is beyond imaginable.
I actually cut the recipe in half unless I have a big group to serve. And then I use a square Pyrex dish when I cut it in half.
