This apple dumpling recipe uses Granny Smith apples, a Pillsbury Crescent roll, and a can of Mountain Dew.
Oh, and more butter than I’ve ever seen. Serve these beauties with vanilla ice cream (or if you’re on a diet, you’ll wonder how these ordinary ingredients can be so sublime.

To make these puppies, all you have to do is roll croissant dough around apple slices, pour a mixture of melted butter and sugar over the top, take some Mountain Dew out of the box, sprinkle with cinnamon and cook. And your da! You have a dessert that everyone will love.

With a little bit of effort to get a great dessert, this recipe definitely made me rethink all of my complicated dessert recipes. What’s the point of working in the kitchen for hours if something semi-homemade will do?

I will definitely make them again. Perhaps a cheese and berry filling would also be good. Or maybe a peach…
