   makes a ball.  Divide the dough into three equal portions and roll each
   portion, on a lightly flour surface, into a 14 X 7-inch rectangle.  Cut
   each rectangle into 2 7-inch squares.  Combine the brown sugar and
   cinnamon, then fill the centers of the apples topping each apple with
   butter.  Sprinkle the remaining brown sugar mixture over the pastry.
   Place an apple in each square and fold the corners to the center, pinching
   the dough at the top of the apple to seal.  Bake in the preheated oven for
   30 to 35 minutes.  Top with whipped cream.
