Better than U No What Apple Dumplings ;)


Okay, you gotta try these! Jacob and I made them for Dad's birthday. They are what I call, totally a cheater dessert, but that makes them even better! Seriously I couldn't stop thinking about them for days. And the smell while they're in the oven is almost better than eating them. Dad said they were as good as he remembers his Mom making them :) I meant to get a picture of the 9x13 that we completely finished in less than 12 hours. Yeah. Do you believe me yet? Are you writing down the ingredients on your shopping list?...

Karlie made these tonight. They were really good, and I got 3/4 of a bottle of mountain dew to go with it (Karlie never would normally buy this sinful drink). Thanks!
