Tart apples wrapped in crescent dough, baked with cinnamon-butter sauce for a sweet golden treat.

# Ingredients:

01 - 2 cans (8 each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
02 - 2 sticks of butter
03 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
04 - 1 teaspoon cinnamon, or to taste
05 - 1 can (12 oz) 7 Up

07 - 1 1/2 cups brown sugar

# Steps:
