Wow...yum! I would halve the recipe for the two of us next time, cause I served it over vanilla bean ice cream and with a wafer cookie. Definitely repeating this recipe!

Oh my goodness... this is just the time of year to enjoy warm, carmely apples with toasted almonds, raisins and just enough booze to warm the blood on a chilly fall evening... of course that could have been the sampling that occurred before making, ha! In any event, these apples were simple, warm and very much enjoyed! I used just a tiny bit of butter to cut a few calories and they tasted great! Made for 1-2-3 Hit wonders.

I had a bag of precut apples so used those for this yummy dessert. I followed the recipe as written. Nice easy dessert.
