APPLE ROLL 
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. hot water

Cook a few minutes to make a syrup.

PASTRY:

1 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. shortening
1/3 c. milk

2 apples, peeled and sliced thin

Mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture becomes mealy in appearance. Add milk and stir to make a soft dough. Roll the pastry on a piece of waxed paper sprinkled with flour. Roll into a rectangle about 9x15 inches. Sprinkle the pastry with white sugar and cinnamon.

Spread the sliced apples on top. Roll up, using the wax paper to help handle as the dough is very tender. Slice into 1-inch slices. Put the cut side down in an 8-inch square baking dish (makes 3 rolls in each direction). Dot with butter and pour syrup over. Bake in 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes or until brown on top. Serve with whipped cream.

The men in your life will love this. It is delicious for breakfast!
