APPLE DUMPLINGS WITH RICH CINNAMON SAUCE
From USA Weekend. I haven't tried this one yet, but it sounds like a wonderful dessert, especially for fall. USA Weekend recommends NOT using Golden Delicious apples for this recipe. This is definitely a dessert for special occasions; it's somewhat involved. :)

CINNAMON APPLE DUMPLINGS
WHEN Mom made pies to feed the crew during wheat harvest, she always had plenty of dough left over, so she treated us kids to apple dumplings. I've carried on this tradition in my own family. Now my husband and I enjoy this special dessert even when I'm not baking pies.

APPLE DUMPLINGS WITH CINNAMON SYRUP
Got this in a recipe swap a few years ago from a woman who owned a small diner. She says customers really enjoyed these, maybe you will too. Eat warm from the oven or re-heat in microwave, scrumptious with vanilla ice cream. Ovens vary so bake time is a guess.
