Recipe - Bourbon-Butterscotch Baked Apples

Don Fifield xkgr41a
6 lg Baking apples; cored
One half cup Unsalted butter;cut in small
pieces
Three fourths cup Brown sugar; firmly packed
Three fourths cup Bourbon
Three fourths cup Light cream
1 tablespoon Vanella
1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350 deg. Remove a strip of peel from around the top of each
apple with a vegetable peeler. Set the apples upright in a flameproof
baking pan just large enough to accomodate them. Top the apples with the
butter; sprinkle with brown sugar, then drizzle with the bourbon over all.
Bake until the apples are puffed and tender, basting them occasionally with
the pan juices, 30 to 35 min. Transfer the apples to a platter and keep
warm. Stir the cream into the baking pan and set over high heat. Bring to
a boil, then lower the heat to medium high and cook, stirring frequently,
until the sauce is reduced by half and coats a spoon, 7 10 min. Remove
the sauce from the heat and stir in the vanilla and lemon juice. Spoon the
sauce onto dessert plates and set an apple in the center of each one and
serve immediately. Per serving: 302 cal, 10 gr fat, 26 mil. chol, 7 mil.
