Ingredients:  
1 Cup Flour
1 tsp Salt
1 Cup Shortening
1/3 Cup Cold Water
8 medium tart Apples (peeled and cored)
8 tsp Butter
9 tsp Cinnamon-sugar, divided

Directions:
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide into 8 portions. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 mins or until easy to handle.

Roll each portion of dough between two lightly floured sheets of waxed paper into a 7-inch square. Place an apple on each square. Place 1 tsp butter and 1 tsp cinnamon-suge in the center of each apple.

Gently bring up corners of pastry to each center; pinch edges to seal. If desired, cut out apple leaves and stems from dough scraps; attach to dumplings with water. Place in a greased 9 x 13" baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon.

In a large saucepan, combine sauce ingredients. Bring just to a boil, stirring until blended. Pour over apples.

Bake at 350º for 50 to 55 mins or until apples are tender and pastry is golden brown; basting occasionally with sauce. Serve warm.
