Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients:
Apples:
8 large Granny Smith Apples
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup soft butter
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup brandy

Applesauce topping:
8 large Granny Smith Apples
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup brandy

Instructions:
Baked Apples:
Mix brown sugar, butter and raisins to a pliable stage. Core apples and stuff with mixture. Place in GLASS baking dish. Pour brandy slowly over the tops aiming at the stuffed center. Bake in 250 degree oven for 2 to 2 1/2 hours depending on size of apples. Remove to serving dishes, keeping covered until sauce is ready. Save carmelized juices to add to applesauce.

Applesauce Topping:
Core and cut apples in chunks (do not peel), place in saucepan with remainder of ingredients. Simmer until apples are tender. Use potato masher to achieve proper consistency. Add carmelized juice from baking apples. Cook over medium heat, stirring as needed until a rich thick golden brown.

Spoon sauce over the top of still warm apples, drizzle with slightly sweetened cream or crème fraice.
