Trisha Yearwood Apple Dumplings

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Peel and core the apples, then cut each one into 8 equal slices.
3. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
4. Place an apple slice at the wide end of each crescent triangle, then roll it up, tucking in the sides as you go. Place the dumplings in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
5. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Mix well.
6. Pour the butter and sugar mixture over the apple dumplings in the baking dish.
7. In a separate saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 cup of water. Bring this syrup mixture to a boil.
8. Pour the syrup over the dumplings and butter mixture in the baking dish. Then, carefully pour the can of Mountain Dew around the edges of the pan.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes or until the dumplings are golden brown and cooked through.
10. Serve the apple dumplings warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
