Filling Preparation

  • Peel apples and remove cores; thank goodness you have your knife permit!
  • Slice the apples so you get 12 to 16 slices per apple

Assembly

  • Place apples in a baking dish (approximately 10 inches by 6 inches)
  • Spoon Double Stuff on top, it will be kind of lumpy

Bake

  • 350oF 40 to 45 minutes or until apples bubbling and crust looks good

Makes 4 generous servings….you need lots of energy at Winter Camp!
