Use a fork to remove the T O P.
Melt butter and brown sugar, cook the apples until soft.

Hee Hee, I like to light my food on fire (for effect, you know!)
It looks beautiful! ANything drizzled with a caramelized sort of sugar is good for me!
I LOVE IT! I just “discovered” puff pastries last week & am looking for more excuses to buy them. Your posts are always so pretty. Thank you for sharing.

I am an advanced baker, but sometimes there just isn’t the time to fuss with every single thing from scratch. I don’t think PF products are terrible.
This looks elegant and rich, Lori. Love the idea of layering apple on apple w/ the Calvados.
