Aplets Recipe

Wash apples and cut in small pieces. Cook until very tender in just enough water to avoid scorching. Put through food mill and measure 2 cups pulp into 2 quart heavy saucepan. Cook until thick, stirring constantly. Soften gelatin in cold water. Mix sugar, cornstarch, and salt; add to apple pulp and cook over low heat until very thick, stirring constantly. Add gelatin and stir until mixture is again very thick; remove from heat. Stir in walnuts, lemon peel and juice.

Turn into shallow glass dish rinsed in cold water. Let stand 24 hours. Cut in rectangles and roll in powdered sugar; place on rack until outside is dry.
