How foolish is every sinner. Can we poor worms strut it out against infinite power? Oh, that every obstinate sinner would think of this, and consider his unmeasurable boldness in thinking himself able to grapple with omnipotence! What force can any have to resist the presence of Him before whom rocks melt, and the heavens at length shall be shriveled up as a parchment by the last fire! As the light of God’s face is too dazzling to be beheld by us, so the arm of His power is too mighty to be opposed by us.

INSTRUCTIONS

Directions: To prepare the dough, combine in a food processor the flour,
salt and brown sugar. Add the shortening and pulse to resemble coarse
crumbs. Add in the water until the dough holds together. Remove dough and
roll out onto a floured surface until 1/4" thick. Cut the dough into four
7" squares. With the remaining dough, cut out leaves to garnish each apple.
Peel each apple completely, removing the cores with a melon-baller. Set
aside. In a small bowl, combine the walnuts, sugar, cinnamon and butter.
Stuff the nut mixture into the cavity of each apple. Assemble each apple on
a dough square. Brush edges of dough with the beaten egg and bring the
dough up over the top of the apple and press into shape. Attach leaves with
egg and place in a baking dish. Press cloves into stems. Bake at 400
degrees for 35-40 minutes until pastry is golden and apples are tender.
