Unless you are a professional baker or cake decorating designer, you may be wondering how to make visually stunning desserts. Well, no more surprises. They're almost like mini apple pies and are just as sweet and the perfect serving size. 
Gather the ingredients With the exception of the apples, most of the ingredients for this group of juicy desserts are likely to be hanging around the house, unless your bowl of fruit was recently full. You will need two pieces of unsalted butter. Flour turns out to be an important part of this recipe, as do salt, granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and ice water. The star of the show, the Fuji apples, are the most important part, and you'll need three to four of them, depending on their size. The Fuji apple is a surprisingly common fruit with a sweet taste. When picking Fuji apples out of the box, make sure there are no soft spots or brown spots and check for defects such as wormholes. Choose apples that are ripe, soft, and brightly colored.

Adding water gradually rather than all at once helps prevent the dough from becoming too runny. Prepare apples for this delicious dessert Take the butter dough and gently shape it into a rectangle. Put the dough in the refrigerator for an hour. Once 30 minutes have passed, turn your attention to the Fuji apple. Cut it in half from the core, then use the spoon to extract the pulp.

The edges of the apple slices should overlap the pastry, but not too much. Carefully roll the dough with the apple in the shape of a rose, and put it in a cupcake mold.
