Ingredients

1 lemon, juiced

2 3/4 cups apple cider

2 (1/2 ounce) packets gelatin

1 tablespoon water

1 tablespoon Cointreau

2 small apples, cored, 1/2-inch cut off top

12 ounces cream cheese

1 1/2 eggs

1/8 cup brandy

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 orange, zested

Directions

  1. Combine lemon juice and cider in pot and bring to boil, then cool.
  2. Dissolve gelatin in water over very low heat. Add Cointreau and cider/lemon juices. Let cool.
  3. Cut apples most of the way through from top to bottom into six even segments, keeping them intact at apple's base. The apple should open to resemble a flower. Place each apple in a small serving bowl, leaving 1/2-inch clearance at top. Pour cooled cider mixture over apples and place in refrigerator to set.
  4. In a bowl, mash together cheese, eggs, brandy, sugar and orange rind. Whisk to get rid of lumps. Pour over set apple jelly and place back in refrigerator to set again. When firm, run heated knife around outer edge of jelly and invert bowl onto plate to serve.

Step 1. Why would you need to boil the cider?<div>Step 2. OK, my envelopes are 1/4 oz. For 1 full oz., you need four packets. Dissolved in 1 T of water??? In a pan on the stove??? So, I dissolved the hard lump in the warm cider.</div><div>Step 3. I prepared the apple as directed. However, when the apple opened as a flower, all the sections broke apart from each other. When I poured the cider mixture over them, they all floated to the surface like dead fish..</div><div>Step 4. I decided to not bother with this step, as some people don't like raw eggs. Also, 1 1/2 eggs is more than awkward.</div><div>Has anyone else actually tried making this recipe?</div>
