    These baked apples are very easy to make and a real treat.

    They would be wonderful with a scoop of ice cream on the side.

    You can soak the raisins in brandy for additional flavor, how about Rakia, the national drink of Bulgaria.

    Put a little note of good fortune tucked in tin foil in the core before baking for a fun surprise for your guests.

    A fun tradition for cooks on special occasions in Bulgaria.
