Cindy had posted a recipe for Apple Pinwheels in Syrup a while back. I made a couple of changes, using what I had on hand. They were very good, although the pan may NEVER come clean. DH had it with vanilla ice cream, sis ate them naked.

I used puff pastry instead of pie crust, and only had enough apples for one sheet of pastry. I should have reduced the syrup by half, since these fit into a 8x8 Pyrex and I needed only half the syrup.

Here is the recipe with the changes. It is a rib-sticking dessert, perfect for these cold months.
