5 Medium Apples (I use Honey Crisp)

2.5 teaspoons Baking Powder
0.5 teaspoons Salt
2/3 cup Shortening

Roll dough out on floured surface and cut out 5 squares.
Place apples in the center of squares and sprinkle each cavity with Cinnamon Sugar, as much as you want.
Pat dough around each apple, securing at the top.
Place dumplings 1 inch apart in greased baking dish.
Pour sauce over each apple (recipe below)
To make the sauce:
Combine Brown sugar, water and Cinnamon.
Cook for 5 minutes, remove from heat and add butter.
Bake at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes.
Baste occasionally during the baking process.
Serve warm with milk or ice cream! These will NOT disappoint!
