APPLE DUMPLINGS (DAWKINS DUMPLINGS)

My best friend made these for me recently and they were fantastic!  Super easy to whip up and everyone loves them!

2 apples (cored, peeled and cut into 8 slices)
2 cans crescent rolls
2 sticks butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 can Mountain Dew
vanilla ice cream

In a small sauce pan melt butter, sugar and cinnamon stirring until well combined.
Roll up each apple slice in a crescent roll.
Arrange dumplings in a casserole dish, pour caramel sauce over them evenly and then pour Mountain Dew over the top.
Sprinkle with additional cinnamon.
Bake at 350º for 35-45 minutes.
Serve with vanilla ice cream.
