Still sharing my treasure trove of old recipes recently found again. As w/most of the others, the original source has been lost w/the passage of time. This sounds so good to me, is an amazing quick-fix & can be served hot or cold in several ways to create a lovely dessert. Enjoy! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
2 large apples (cored & thinly sliced) |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
2 tablespoons raisins |
1 tablespoon cognac |
1/4 cup pecans (chopped) |
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a non-stick skillet. Add apples & sprinkle w/sugar.
2. Saute (stirring constantly w/a wooden spoon) till apples begin to get tender (about 2-3 min).
3. Add raisins & saute for a couple of min to heat them through & continue to cook the apples.
4. Remove the skillet from the heat, stir in the cognac & swirl the apples around til it is well-mixed into the sauce.
5. Serving Suggestions: If you want to serve hot (or warm), use apple mixture to top pound cake slices or vanilla ice cream & sprinkle w/the chopped pecans. - If you want to serve cold, refrigerate mixture till ready for use & then assemble the desserts as already stated.
