Stuffed Veal Rolls With Iced Apple Wine Sauce

Marlitt's Note:

French Cranberry and Cheese Stuffed Milk-Fed Veal Rolls With Iced Apple Wine Sauce. This is a very nice French dish. I’ve made this for special occasions several times because it is quite easy and really not a lot of time to make. Good flavors and nice presentation.
