Apple Dumplings
Roll the pastry in a thin sheet and cut it in rounds. Place a whole, cored apple in center of each round of pastry.
Sprinkle sugar over the apple, dot with butter, and bring the edges of the pastry together over the apple. Bake in muffin pans, in a moderate oven (350°F.) until apple is tender, about 1 hour. Serve hot with hard sauce ([page 9]).
