Baked Apples wtih Amaretti Cookies
Today, my dessert was Baked Apples with Amaretti Cookies. I loved this recipe! They were so good. The recipe is quite simple to make. Core some apples, leaving the very bottom intact. Fill with a mixture of crushed amaretti cookies and soft butter. Sprinkle over some sugar, place in a baking dish, then pour over a mixture of water and white wine. Bake 45 minutes. When done, reduce the liquid to a syrup, and pour over the apples. Yum! Even without whipped cream or ice cream, they were so good. I’m very happy the recipe made 4, as tomorrow night we get to have them again.
Cindy, that looks very good. What variety of apple did you use?
I’d be interested in hearing about the apple variety. In Italy I’d use one called “renette”. I don’t know what the corresponding American one would be. I have used every kind, and somehow they never disappoint, although some are tastier than others.
I don’t know what variety they are. I bought a bag of organic apples and the variety wasn’t listed. They were both sweet and tart.
