PIONEER WOMAN ~~APPLE DUMPLINS~~

Tabitha made these for us a couple of weeks ago, and they are amazing!!
I don't even like fruit desserts, and I could not stop eating it!!
I have made them twice, and used whatever apples I had at home.
I also used a generic Mountain Dew...I think it was Kroger brand and
the sauce turned out great!! I decreased the amount of soda used too, to about 1/2.

Ingredients
2 whole Granny Smith Apples
2 cans (8 Oz. Cans) Crescent Rolls
2 sticks Butter
1-½ cup Sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla
Cinnamon, To Taste
1 can (12 Oz.) Mountain Dew Soda

Peel and core apples. Cut each apple into 8 slices each. Roll each apple slice in a crescent roll. Place in a 9 x 13 buttered pan.
Melt butter, then add sugar and barely stir. Add vanilla, stir, and pour entire mixture over apples. Pour Mountain Dew around the edges of the pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Serve with ice cream, and spoon some of the sweet sauces from the pan over the top.
