PLace raisins in a microwave safe cup with 1/2 cup dark or gold rum. Microwave about 2 minutes until raisins plump and absorb most of the rum. Set aside.

Peel and core apples and thinly slice them.
In a 9x13 baking dish -spray with butter flavor Pam- place one sheet Phyllo in pan.Spray the sheet with cooking spray then LIGHTLY sprinkle with remaining cinnamon splenda mix. Place another sheet of Phyllo and repeat process until you have 4 sheets on the bottom. Place the apples on the phyllo and layer them so they lay as flat as possible. drain the un absorbed rum into the yogurt- sour cream mix and mix well. Sprinkle the raisins over the apples then smear the yogurt- sour cream mix over all as evenly as possible.
place a sheet of phyllo over apples and spray with Pam and lightly dust with remaining splenda-cinnamon mix- do this until you have 4 sheets on top. *** you won't use all the cinnamon mixture- save the rest for wonderful cinnamon toast! When you have 4 sheet of Phyllo- spray the top with Pam and sprinkle the raw sugar and real brown sugar over the top.
Bake at 350 until golden brown.( 45-55 minutes depending on your oven and the altitude).
If you like serve hot with Fat free vanilla yogurt.
Serving Size: Makes 8 BIG servings
*** If you're not a cinnamon freak like me - you can use half the required cinnamon in the cinnamin splenda mix- the apples will shine more.
*** also Grannysmith apples have a tart taste and keep their firm texture when cooking( I.E. they don;t break down into applesauce when baked- so that's why I love them. You can use different kinds of apples- Red or golden delicious apples will give you a sweeter taste and softer texture. Of you can even mix different varieties of apple.
*** I also love the sharp taste of cheese with apples so if you're a cheese-holic- try adding some grated extra sharp cheddar ontop of the sourcream yogurt smear! I've don this with plenty of apples pies and cobblers and it always is a big hit!
