How to cook deliciously - Cinnamon Apple Dumplings

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 400°. In a bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. With a fork, stir in water until dough forms a ball. Roll out on a floured surface to a 14x7-in. rectangle; cut crust in half.

2. Stage

Peel and core apples; place an apple on each square of crust. Combine sugar and cinnamon; spoon into apples. Moisten edges of crust with water and gather around apples; pinch seams to seal.

3. Stage

Place dumplings in an ungreased 9x5-in. loaf pan or a shallow 1-1/2-qt. baking dish. Brush with cream.

4. Stage

In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, Red Hots, cornstarch, water and butter. Bring to a boil over medium-low heat, stirring frequently; boil for 2 minutes. Pour between dumplings.

5. Stage

Bake until crust is golden brown and apples are tender, 35-45 minutes. Serve warm, with cream if desired.
