2 cans crescent rolls
2 apples, peeled and sliced into 8 pieces each
2 sticks (1 cup butter or margarine, melted)
1 1/2 cups sugar (splenda works just as well)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 (12 oz) Mountain Dew
1 cup chopped pecans
2 Tbsps cinnamon & sugar mixture
(Mix 1 cup od sugar with 1 Tbsp cinnamon, you can reserve remainder for other uses)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Wrap each apple slice in a crescent roll, sprinkling a little of the cinnamon/sugar before rolling up. Line the dumplings in a 13 X 9 inch baking pan. In a medium size saucepan heat butter and sugar together until sugar is melted and mixture is bubbly; remove from heat and add Mountain Dew and vanila extract. Pour over apple dumplings and then sprinkle them with the remaining 2 Tbsps cinnamon/sugar mixture. Sprinkle chopped pecans over top and bake approximately 45 minutes.
Serve with ice cream if desired.
Jenny, I didn't use the nuts on mine, I'm not a nut person myself, but it was delicious enough without them, believe me! Hope you enjoy this, we sure have! Love you, Dee...
