Apples with Worms
6 large Golden Delicious apples
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup(1/2 stick) butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
6 Wiggly candy worms

1 cup Whipping cream, optional Recipe
Core apples from blossom ends, leaving stem ends intact.
Mix raisins and walnuts and stuff into cavities of cored apples.
Set apples, stems up in a 7x12-inch pan.
In a 1 to 2 quart pan, mix brown sugar, water, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg; stir over high heat until mixture boils.
Pour hot syrup around apples.
Bake, uncovered, in 350~ oven, basting occasionally with syrup, until apples are tender when pierced and skin begins to crack, 30 to 35 minutes.
Remove apples from oven; cool in pan at least 10 minutes or let cool to room temperature.
Set each apple in a small bowl and spoon syrup around fruit.
In the top of each apple, cut a hole large enough for one of the candy worms and tuck one end into each apple, leaving most of the worm dangling.
Offer cream to pour over apples.
Makes 6 ghastly servings.
