Mt. Dew Apple Dumplings

Well...I can say this has been such a wonderfully lazy weekend! I love those and they are definitely few and far between in my world! Yesterday, I went shopping BY MYSELF for 5...yes 5 hours!! Then picked up the girls and went to dinner at Wicks with friends. Today....I have been lazy. Extremely lazy...got up at 10 only because the girls got up, took a nap from 1-3:45 this afternoon, went to baseball signups and now on to dinner (out because once again I am being lazy), then to coach cheerleading at our 8 pm game. Not going to lie...after that i plan on going straight back to bed! hahaha. Needless to say, if I am not well rested this week then there is something wrong with me!
So in the honor of my laziness today...I thought I would go with a comfort food! What is better than Mt. Dew Apple Dumplings! Super easy and extrememly yummy!!

Mt. Dew Apple Dumplings


You will need:
  • 2 cans crescent rolls
  • 4 larger apples, tart ones
  • 1 tsp cinammon
  • 1 can Mt. Dew
  • 1/2 c. butter
  • 1 1/2 c. sugar
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Spray a 9x13 baking dish
  3. Peel and core each apple; cut each apple into 4 equal pieces
  4. Roll one slice of apple in each crescent roll and place lined up in the baking dish
  5. In seperate bowl melt butter in your microwave and then stir in sugar and cinnamon until completely mixed
  6. Pour over crescent apples
  7. Pour Mt. Dew evenly over apples
  8. Bake for 45 minutes until dumplings are lightly browned and bubbly.
This is sooo easy but addictive be careful you may eat the whole pan! They are super sweet as well this is why you need to use a tart apple to off set it some :)
