Grammy's Stewed Apples

3 lbs of apples

Start with
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp of cinnamon
1/2 - 1 tsp apple spice
2 T butter or margarine
1/4 cup or more apple juice or apple brandy

Heat together all ingredients in large sauce pan.
Simmer on low while you peel and slice apples.
As juice thickens, put apples in sauce and toss to coat

Throw in handfull of mini marshmallows and mix in with apples

Cover to simmer until done:
Taste to see if more sugar or brown sugar is needed
Test for tenderness with fork - Don't let them get mushy!
If juice is too thin mix a little cornstarch in a little water and stir in.

Eat as a side item, dessert, over ice cream and enjoy!
