Easy Apple Crescents

This is one of the easiest desserts you'll ever make . . .

and you'll be surprised at how well people like it!

Personally, I'm not an apple pie lover, but these little desserts, I like.

Maybe it's because the fruit to dough ratio can be a little skewed.

Maybe I can add as much cinnamon/sugar as I want.

Maybe I'm just weird and there's really no difference between the two!

This recipe is great because you can let little hands help you! Matter of fact, the little hands can do the whole thing and you can just supervise! Also, this recipe is easily halved . . .which is what I do a majority of the time!

I like to serve this with a scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of warmed caramel sauce (actually, I prefer the buttermilk syrup . . . www.karen-proverbs31.blogspot.com/pure-sin )

Easy Apple Crescents

2 whole Granny Smith Apples

2 cans (8 Oz. Cans) Crescent Rolls

2 sticks Butter

1-1/2 cup Sugar

2-4 tsp. Cinnamon, or to taste

1 can (12 Oz.) Sprite, 7-up, or Mountain Dew

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Wash and core the apples. You can peel them too, but I don't. Cut each apple into 8 slices each.

Roll each apple slice in a crescent roll.

Place in a 9 x 13 buttered pan.

Melt butter, then add sugar and cinnamon and stir until combined. Pour the entire mixture over apples. Pour the soda around the edges of the pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with ice cream, and spoon some of the sweet sauces from the pan over the top or use a bit of caramel.

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers; the best there are! I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy! They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup. I found it at www.tastebook.com I made some adjustments to the recipe. Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients. I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su...

Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe.

"Hosaf" (Dried Fruit Compote)

I've made reference to our trip last Summer to different European countries. My prized souvenirs are cookbooks from each country. I'm not sure, of the 4 cookbooks, which is my favorite, but I surely enjoy the one I purchased while in Greece. I'll tell the quick story: We were in an open air market in Greece, searching through antiques and junk. Along the perimeter of where we were shopping were business. In typical European fashion, outside one of the restaurants was a young man leaning against the doorframe, as if to summon customers into his restaurant. When he heard our English, he asked where we were from, as he had studied in the States when he was in school. That question led to a great conversation and he invited us into the restaurant which he and his mother owned. We sampled all sorts of incredible foods that afternoon and when I told him that I would love to have a cookbook because of the great experience we had just had, he showed me the co...
