Apple-Raisin Egg Rolls

Tender apples are rolled inside crisp egg roll wrappers for a deliciously different dessert. As fancy as these treats look, they're really quite simple to make.—Karen Orvis, Plainville, Connecticut

16 ServingsPrep: 15 min. + standing Cook: 5 min./batch

Ingredients

4 medium tart apples, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup unsweetened apple juice
3 tablespoons honey
16 egg roll wrappers
Oil for deep-fat frying
Vanilla ice cream

Directions

In a large skillet, saute the apples, raisins and cinnamon in butter
until tender. Combine the cornstarch, juice and honey until smooth;
stir into apple mixture. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook and
stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; cool.
Place 1/4 cupful of apple mixture in the center of one egg roll
wrapper. Fold bottom corner over filling. Fold sides toward center
over filling. Moisten remaining corner with water; roll up tightly
to seal. Repeat with remaining apple mixture and wrappers. Let stand
for 15 minutes.
In an electric skillet, heat 1 in. of oil to 375°. Fry turnovers,
a few at a time, for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
