How to Make Apple Mystery Dessert

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Grease a 9-inch pie pan.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
4. Add 2 large eggs and 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
5. Gently fold in 3 cups peeled and diced apples and ½ cup chopped walnuts.
6. Pour batter into the prepared pie pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
7. **Prepare the Hard Sauce:** While the dessert bakes, prepare the hard sauce.
8. In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
9. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy.
10. Transfer the hard sauce to a small, shallow dish or bowl. Refrigerate until firm enough to slice (about 30 minutes).
11. To serve, slice the chilled hard sauce and top each serving of the warm apple dessert with a slice of hard sauce.
