Apple Crisp

Peel and slice 7-8 apples. Put in bowl and sprinkle with lemon juice and cinnamon

Put in separate bowl:
1/2 c margarine
3/4 c brown sugar
1 c flour
1 t soda
1/2 t salt
1 c oatmeal

Mix with a pastry blender until all crumbly and then pour over apples

Bake at 350 for 60 minutes (apples are bubbly)

Sticky Icing

1/2 C sugar
2 T water
1/4 c. white corn syrup

Mix the above ingredients in a sauce pan. Put on the heat on medium and slowly let the mixture come to a rolling boil. Use the candy thermometer and let the mixture get to 242 degrees (soft ball stage)

While the mixture is heating up, beat 2-3 egg whites in a glass bowl. The egg whites need to be STIFF.

Once the mixture has gotten to 242 remove from heat. The next part is tricky and might need 2 people. Have one person be mixing the egg whites with a hand mixer while the other person slowly pours the mixture into the egg whites. It has to be poured at a slow steady pace or else it won't mix properly. This process takes about 7 minutes!
