Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry (from a package of 2)
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 green apples, thinly sliced (soak apples in lemon water to keep them from browning)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon rum extract
- 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/3 cup apple cider
- 1/2 cup apple butter
- Whipped topping in a can
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 420 degrees F. Thaw puff pastry in refrigerator
- For the filling: Melt butter in a pan. Add the apples and toss so they are covered with the melted butter. Add brown sugar, rum extract, pumpkin pie spice and apple cider. Stir over heat until thick.
- Lay 1 sheet of puff pastry flat on a cutting board. Cut puff pastry with Halloween shaped cookie cutters like bats, pumpkins and ghosts. Place cutout shapes on an ungreased cookie sheet. Make sure there is enough room between shapes for them to puff-up. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
- When puff pastry has been baked carefully cut each shape in half like a sandwich. Spread apple butter on bottom half of puff pastry. Layer apple filling on top of the apple butter. Put whipped topping on top of apple filling. Place top half of puff pasty on whipped cream to complete the sandwich. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

This recipe gave me the runs
I made this last Holloween, I loved it and so did my friends:)
I made just the apples to serve with baked ham. I added some cinnamon sugar to the recipe and it was very good.
The filling was watery and didn’t taste like apples. It was not good at all.
the pumpkin spice is too much spice. just use cinnamon if you’re lokking for the apple pie taste.
The filling was a little loose but I added some corn starch to thicken it and it tasted great. We didn’t add the apple butter and found it wasn’t necessary.
The filling was very loose and thin and slid right out of the middle. Suggest cooking it a different way or using something else.
No one liked this at all. I think it needed more sugar and more spices in the apple mixture and maybe less cider since it was quite watery. Apple butter is quite expensive and hard to find and didn’t add anything to the pastry, IMO.
