"Easy and DELICIOUS!! It's hard not to eat them all. I got this recipe from Rachel Ray magazine in a section where she gets recipes from celebrities. This recipe comes from "The Office" star, Angela... although I tweaked it slightly. Outrageously good with vanilla bean ice cream."

This is so easy and tastes great! I loved it, thanks for posting! I made it as stated except for forgetting it was in the oven (while still covered by foil) for ten minutes. It didn't seem to adversely affect it at all though. I used Golden Delicious apples and served with vanilla frozen yogurt. It was made for PAC Fall 2012

These little dumplings are wonderful and you really cant stop eating them! Dont be afraid of the Mountain Dew in the sauce, it is so good. I used granny smith apples and unsalted butter with a little extra cinnamon. Served with Breyers vanilla ice cream and enjoyed! Made and reviewed for the Iron Chef tag game.
