I use red-hot candies to turn ordinary apples into something cinnamony and sensational. The tender treats bake on the grill during dinner. —Helen Shubert, Hays, Kansas

Ingredients

4 medium tart apples, cored
4 teaspoons brown sugar
1/4 cup Red Hots
Vanilla ice cream, optional

Directions

Place each apple on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (12 in. square). Spoon 1 teaspoon sugar and 1 tablespoon Red Hots into the center of each apple. Fold foil around apples and seal tightly.
Grill, covered, over medium heat for 25-30 minutes or until tender. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Carefully transfer to dessert dishes. Serve warm with ice cream if desired.
