Ingredients:
- 2 Large Granny Smith Apples
- 16 oz Refrigerated Crescent Roll Dough (2 cans)
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1.5 cups Granulated White Sugar
- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 12 oz Mountain Dew Soda
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Core and peel apples, then slice each into 8 even wedges (16 total).
- Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles. Place one apple wedge at the wide end of each triangle and roll toward the point. Arrange in a greased 9x13 inch glass baking dish.
- In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, melt the butter. Whisk in the sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla until thickened and well combined.
- Pour the butter and sugar mixture evenly over the center of the rolled dumplings.
- Carefully pour the Mountain Dew soda around the edges of the pan and in the spaces between dumplings, avoiding the tops to ensure a crispy texture.
- Bake for 35 minutes, or until the tops are a deep mahogany brown and the syrup is bubbling and thickened.
