Calling all apple lovers. Here are a couple of old-fashion apple dessert recipes from my vintage recipe collection. Mom's Apple Dumplings are a delicious after dinner dessert or they are great for visiting with friends or co-workers over a cup of coffee. The Apple-Cheddar Cheese Dessert is so easy even a beginner can make it in no time. Both are also perfect for taking to "pitch-ins".
