DUTCH APPLE MINI TARTS
1 pkg. (15 oz) refrigerated ready-to-bake pie crust
OR 1 box of “Jiffy” pie crust mix (9 oz)
Apple Filling
½ pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
¼ cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 egg
2 Tbls. Flour
½ tsp. ground cinnamon
½ tsp. vanilla extract
3 medium peeled sliced chopped Granny Smith apples (3 cups)
Topping
3 Tbls. firmly packed light brown sugar
3 Tbls. Flour
2 Tbls. butter

Preheat oven to 375ºF. On lightly floured surface, roll one pie crust (or prepare “Jiffy” box dough) into a 12x10 inch rectangle using the Baker’s Roller. Cut 12 circles from dough using Cut-N-Seal. Press into Deluxe Mini-Muffin Pan using Mini-Tart Shaper. Repeat with remaining crust. For apple filling, whisk cream cheese in Classic Batter Bowl until smooth. Whisk in sugar until fluffy. Mix in egg until well blended. Stir in flour and cinnamon until smooth. Peel and slice apples using Apple Peeler/Corer/Slicer. Chop into small pieces using Food Chopper. Stir into cream cheese mixture. Fill prepared muffin cups with apple mixture, filling over top of pastry. For topping, combine 3 tablespoons flour and 3 tablespoons of brown sugar. Cut in butter with Pastry Blender, until coarse crumbs are formed. Spoon over apple filling. Bake 18-20 minutes or until light golden brown. Let cool in pan 5 minutes. Remove from pan. Serve warm or at room temperature. Yield 24 servings.

that sounds good too... thanks! (i might try those myself.)
 
One of my recent hosts contacted me through my website yesterday. She said she'd just eaten a yummy snack. She used the Apple Wedger to wedge an apple, then sprinkled it with the Sweet Caramel Sprinkles.

i like that too, nice and simple. i might try that one. thanks
 
Or... Mix cream cheese with the sprinkle and spread on apple slices.
 
Doesn't use the sprinkles - but I am sure you could add that and it would be great - but here is the easiest and most yummy apple dip...

1 block cream cheese (softened)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp vanilla

Just mix it up and chill. YUM!

It would be really good with either sprinkles too...

Makes me want a snack right now!
