Ingredients
Pillsbury Reduced Fat Crescent Rolls, 2 tubesGranny smith apples 2 large, cut bite size chunksSplenda or other substitute (or sugar) 1 cupLight butter 1/3 cup meltedDiet Mountain Dew or Diet Mellow Yellow 10ozApple Pie Spice 2 TblspCinnamon, ground 2 Tblsp 13 X 9 baking dish
Directions
Preheat oven to 350. In a mixing bowl add chunked apples, spices and 1/4c of the Splenda. Toss together to coat apples. Mix remaining Splenda with melted butter and set aside. Open tubes of crescent roll dough and separate into 8 rectangles (do not tear into regular triangles...each tube gives 4 rectangles) On each rectangle put heaping TBlsp of apple mix in center and poke a "well" in middle, add 1tsp melted butter blend.
USE your hands and bring up sides of dough into a pouch shape and pinch to seal edges. Doesn't have to be fancy.
Place the 8 pouches in baking dish and pour diet soda into dish from the side, NOT ON TOP of dough, just so they sit in a bath of soda. Bake 350 for 35mins or until golden brown. Remove and cool 5mins, then spoon the syrup the cooked soda became onto pouches. Serve immediately with frozen vanilla yogurt or ice cream.
