Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 13x9 inch baking dish by greasing it.
Peel, core, and slice the tart apples into 16 pieces for even cooking.
Unroll the crescent dough, place an apple slice on each triangle, and roll them up tightly.
Arrange the rolled dumplings in the prepared baking dish snugly.
Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan, stir in sugar and cinnamon; pour over dumplings.
Pour Mountain Dew over the dumplings evenly to soak in the syrup.
Bake for about 45 minutes until the dough is golden brown and sauce is bubbling.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving warm with ice cream or caramel sauce.
