Instructions
Step 1: Preparing the baked square apples
Wash the apples. Lightly score the skin on all sides to prevent them from splitting during baking.
Grease a baking dish and place the apples in it. Mix butter and sugar, and use to fill in the spaces between the apples. Add a little water. Cover the dish and bake in a 302°F (150°C) oven until the apples are tender but still retain their original shape. As soon as the apples come out of the oven, shape into cubes using a spatula or square molds. Set aside.
Step 2: Making the cider jelly
Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water. Bring the apple juice and sugar to a boil. Let cool a little, then add the drained gelatin sheets. Mix. Fold in the cider. Refrigerate.
