Lady Apple Cordials (serves 18)
18 Lady Apples (or other variety of small apple)
18 cubes of brown sugar, or more Scrub each apple until clean and residue-free. With the small end of a melon scoop,
remove the stem and seeds of the apple, being careful not to scoop through the bottom of the fruit.
If you like, with a paring knife or a vegetable peeler, peel away a narrow border of skin around
the round opening. Insert a cube or two of brown sugar into the hollow of each apple. Place the
apples into a shallow casserole dish and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 35 minutes. The apples
should be soft to the touch, yet still retain their form.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
