Recipe by: Sue Klapper Preparation Time: 0:40 Combine flour and 1 teaspoon salt. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Stir in milk until pastry froms a ball; set aside. Stir brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and remaining salt to form a paste. Divide and press into center of each apple; pat any extra filling on outside of apples. On a floured surface, roll pastry into a 14 inch square. Cut into 4 - 7 inch squares. Place one apple in center of each square. Brush edges of pastry with egg white. Fold up corners to center; pinch to seal. Place in a greased 9 inch square baking dish. Bake at 375 for 35 ~ 40 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, combine sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Stir in water. Bring to a boil; boil 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in remaining ingredients until smooth. Serve warm over warm dumplings.
