Apple Turnovers

Here is a recipe for the holidays ... perfect for a large family gathering, or dinner for two paired with some apple cider!  We served these on Sunday when my family came over, and everyone enjoyed them!  I got this recipe from John's mom, and I think she got it from her sister.


Ingredients

2 Croissant Roll Cans (must say "50% bigger")
2-3 Granny Smith Apples, cut into small slices
Cinnamon
1 1/2 cups Sugar
1 cup Butter
1 tsp. Vanilla


Directions

Unroll the croissants, and set a few apple slices on the wide end.  Sprinkle with cinnamon, roll tightly, and place on a baking sheet.  In a medium saucepan, cook sugar, butter, and vanilla until liquid becomes clear (or almost clear).  Pour liquid on apple-filled croissants.  Secret ingredient: after pouring the liquid, pour a 1/2 cup of original Mountain Dew over the top.  This is purely optional, and the turnovers would probably taste just as good without if you want to exclude it.  Sprinkle sugar on top of all the croissants, and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.


* Let me know how they turn out! *
