December 26, 2018  Baked Apple Pie, well kind of

Did I wake up your tastebuds with the word Baked....Apple...Pie with a delicious scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.  Now you are listening right.

So I made that delicious French Toast with the Raspberry/Cranberry jam and had some left over.  I had to do something with it, right?

I made stuffed baked Apple Pie, Now you are curious, I can hear your brain going into overtime.  Whatever is stuffed Baked Apple Pie you say.

Baked Apple Pie

2-4 small-medium Red Apples, peeled and cored
Pillsbury Pie dough, found in the refrigerator section at the grocery store
Left over Raspberry/Cranberry jam
Cinnamon and Sugar mixed

Heat oven to 400 degrees.  Stuff the apples with the jam. Roll out dough and cut into 4 squares. Place the stuffed Apple in the middle of the square piece of dough, take all corners and meet at the top.  Press together once they have all come together sprinkle the cinnamon /sugar mix on it and place on lined cookie sheet. Place in middle rack of the oven and bake for 20 minutes. You want the crust brown so you know the apple is done. You can cut leaves out of the leftover dough and bake for 5 minutes or until light brown. Decorate on top with leaves and cranberries.
Serve with vanilla ice cream. So simple right

Mini Cheesecakes with Apple Caramel Sauce I love making mini cheesecakes as they store really well and you don’t have to worry about eating too much. You can top them with almost anything. This recipe theses cheesecakes will be topped with a velvety fresh apple caramel sauce. I used a mixture of Granny Smith and Red Delicious . I peeled mined but you could leave the skins on the Red Delicious if you prefer. You can do the caramel sauce two different ways. Buy a jar of Smuckers or your favorite brand of caramel sauce or make your own using sugar and butter. I made a sauce for the apples and then used the jarred caramel sauce with it. Once the cheesecakes have cooled you can layer them in a container. I used a large container that held 4 on the bottom placed a piece of parchment paper and then stacked more and so on. I scored the apples separately and left the caramel in the jar until needed. The cheese cakes should be cupcake size. 1cup graham cracker crumbs 3/4 cup macadamia n...
