BLUSHING APPLES (kraftrecipes.com)

Also, made this with a friend! Simple treat - tastes kind of like apple pie when served warm. Great cold, too!

Blushing Apples

2 pkg. (4-serving size each) JELL-O Strawberry Flavor Gelatin

1/4 tsp.  ground cinnamon

4 cups water

4 medium  apples, such as Granny Smith, McIntosh or Golden Delicious

1/2 cup thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

 

COMBINE dry gelatin mix and cinnamon in 3- to 4-qt. saucepan. Add water. Bring to boil on medium-high heat, stirring frequently until gelatin is completely dissolved.
PEEL and core apples. Add to gelatin mixture in saucepan; partially cover saucepan with lid. Return to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 10 to 15 min. or just until apples are fork tender, gently turning apples every 5 min. Remove apples from liquid.
SERVE apples warm. Or, cool and store in tightly covered container in refrigerator at least 1 hour or overnight. Serve each apple topped with 2 Tbsp. of the whipped topping. Garnish with fresh mint, if desired. 

NOTE

After draining the cooked apples, pour the cooking liquid evenly into eight dessert dishes. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or until set for a refreshing JELL-O snack!

SUBSTITUTE

Prepare as directed, using any other flavor of red JELL-O Gelatin.
