Shiney Caramel Apple Turnovers

Ingredients

• 5 small to medium green apples peeled, cored, and roughly chopped into about 1/4 inch


• 1/3 cup sugar plus 1 teaspoon to sprinkle before baking


• 1/4 cup brown sugar


• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon


• pinch of nutmeg


• 1/4 cup Mag Walton’s Salted Caramel Moonshine


• 1 tablespoon butter


• 2 puff pastry sheets 1 17.3 box, thawed


• 1 egg lightly beaten


• 1 tablespoon cornstarch


• pinch of salt

• 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, unopened


• 1-2 cups Mag Walton’s Salted Caramel Moonshine

Instructions

• Make caramel sauce in advance. (Caramel sauce takes 3 hours)


• Preheat oven to 400°. Combine apples, sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, Mag Walton’s Salted Caramel Moonshine, and butter in a Dutch oven and bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer.


• Make a well in the center of liquid and whisk in cornstarch until dissolved


• Continue to cook until softened to fork tender, but not mushy, set aside to cool slightly


• Roll out pastry dough to 2 even squares and cut each piece into 4 equal squares


• Transfer 2 tablespoons of the apple mixture onto each pastry square - bring very little of the liquid to prevent leaking and soggy dough and reserve the remaining liquid for a finishing drizzle


• Fold each square into a triangle


• Use a pastry brush to lightly coat the top of each triangle with the egg


• Use a fork to lightly press the edges together


• Evenly sprinkle each turnover with the remaining teaspoon of sugar


• Bake for 15 - 17 minutes or until golden brown


• Cool on a wire rack and serve warm or at room temperature


• Drizzle with moonshine caramel sauce and serve.

• Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a boil over medium heat. Place the can of milk, unopened, in the boiling water. Cover and let simmer 3 hours, topping off water as needed and turning the can every half hour to prevent scorching.


• Open the can carefully and pour into a mixing bowl. Whisk in 1 cup of Mag Walton’s Salted Caramel Moonshine.


• Add more moonshine to taste.
