Mom’s Apple Cobbler

½ C margarine 1 t. cinnamon

2 C water 2 C sugar

1 ½ C self-rising flour ½ C shortening

1/3 C milk 2 C finely chopped apples

Heat oven to 350 degrees – melt margarine in a 9x13x2 pan or dish. In a saucepan, heat sugar and water until sugar melts. Cut shortening into flour until particles are crumbly - Add milk and stir only until dough leaves the side of the bowl. Turn onto lightly floured board – knead until smooth. Roll dough into a large rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Sprinkle cinnamon over apples, then spread apples evenly over dough. Roll up dough like a jellyroll. Dampen edge of dough with a little water and seal. Slice dough in 16 slices, about ½ inch thick. Place in pan with melted margarine. Pour sugar syrup carefully around rolls. (It looks like too much liquid, but it will be absorbed. Bake for 55-60 minutes
