OLD FASHIONED APPLE-RAISIN CRUNCH A LA MODE

Steps:

• Preheat oven 400 degrees.
• In a heavy 12" skillet over medium heat, melt 1/4 cup butter, watching that it doesn't burn.
• Gradually add the 1/2 cup sugar and stir the mixture until the sugar is completely dissolved, becomes carmelize and reduced.
• Slowly add the liqueur and the apple juice, stirring constantly until all the ingredients are smooth.
• At this point, drop in the sliced apples and sprinkle cinnamon over the top.
• Mix together well, making sure that the apple slices are coated with the syrup.
• Reduce the fire to low and simmer the fruit until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Do not over cook because the dessert will be baked later.
• While the apples are simmering, butter a 10"x12" baking dish with the 3 tablespoons butter. Evenly sprinkle the 1/2 cup raisins on the bottom.
