Candied Apples

Not the candy-coated apple on a stick...this is a cinnamony apple side dish, served chilled. Actually, a pretty side dish as the apples turn a vibrant red during cooking.

Candied Apples

8 cooking apples
1-3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. water
9 oz. bag of small red cinnamon candies

Peel, core and cut apples into eighths. In a Dutch oven, combine the sugar, water and cinnamon candies. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, about 10 minutes or until candies are dissolved. Add apples and bring to a boil. Cook about 5 minutes, until apples are tender. Cool. Store covered in refrigerator. Serve chilled.
