Thinly slice apple crosswise to show the star in the core. Take dough and shape into balls about 3 tablespoons big and place on baking sheet 2 inches apart. Then take apple slice and evenly press it into the dough ball flattening it slightly onto the pan. You can sprinkle sugar over the top before putting in the over for about 14 minutes or until golden brown on the edges. Enjoy!
