Recipe
Dumplings:

Place 4 of the balls on a workspace for apples. Core and peel apples, placing one on each square. Combine sugar and spices; sprinkle into center of each apple, adding 1/2 teaspoon butter to each. Moisten edges of dough; press corners up over apples. Cut the last square of dough into strips and wrap around tops of apple dumplings, tying a delicate bow. Brush with milk.
Place on a greased baking pan and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
