Ingredients:

1/3 cup butter
1/4 cup confectionersÆ sugar
1 large egg
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
4 teaspoons granulated sugar
4 teaspoons orange marmalade, melted

Method:

1) In large bowl with electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy; beat in egg and salt. Gradually stir in flour until soft dough forms.

2) Heat oven to 375° F. On lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 10-inch square; cut into four 5-inch squares.

3) Place squares on baking sheet; turn up 1/4 inch of edges of all squares to make a thick edge. Arrange apples slices on each square; sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon sugar. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until pastry is golden. Brush apple slices with marmalade and return to oven for 3 minutes.
