Sweet Apple Dumplings

These may well be my FAVORITE dessert. Well, this and cheesecake, but who has the time to make cheesecake?

AND...they are so easy, but look like something you spend DAYS making!

1 can Pillsbury Grands refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (see how easy this is already?)
8 tsp butter or margarine
4 small to medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and halved
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Heat oven to 350. Lightly grease 9 X 13 glass baking dish.

Flatten biscuits with rolling pin. Place 1 tsp butter in the core area of each apple half. Wrap each biscuit around 1 apple half. Place seam side down in greased baking dish. Combine sugar, water, melted butter and vanilla; pour over dumplings. Sprinkle cinnamon over dumplings.

Bake uncovered at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and apples are tender.

Serve with HEAPING scoops of vanilla ice cream, and prepare to die and go to heaven!!!! Oh, just typing this makes me want to whip some up right now!!!
