There is nothing quite like good conversation, dessert, and hot coffee after dinner.
Mitchell & I were planning to head over to his grandparents Monday night to hang out and so I could meet his great aunt and great uncle. I wanted to take a dessert but I didn’t want it to be to drawn out because I knew my mom was in the kitchen getting dinner ready.
My first thought was Apple Turnovers, a childhood favorite. I happened to already be in Target (I’d move in if they would let me!) so all I had to grab were crescent rolls!
I put them together in about 15 minutes and they only took 20 to bake- perfect 🙂 They smelled so good cooking that my family practically begged to have them with dinner! I obliged. Even after each of us having one, there were still plenty to share!
2 cups peeled and chopped apples (I used pink ladies. Don’t even consider canned.)
1/3 c sugar
2 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon (I adore cinnamon, so I was extra generous here!!)
Dash nutmeg
two 8 oz cans refrigerated crescent rollsÂ
Glaze:
1/2 c powdered sugar
water to the right consistency
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix together first five ingredients; make sure apples are well coated. Take a bite- this mixture is amazing. Roll dough out and separate the 16 triangles. Spoon 1 rounded tbsp of apple mixture into the center of each. Fold dough over the filling, overlapping each corner. Try to close up all the holes! Place each on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Combine glaze ingredients and mix until smooth. Drizzle over the top & lastly,
