1. Heat oven to 425°. Make pastry as directed-except roll two-thirds of the pastry into 14-inch square cut into 4 squares. Roll remaining pastry into 14 X 7-inch rectangle cut into 2 squares. Peel and core apples. Place apple on each square.
2. Mix raisins and nuts. Fill apples with raisin mixture. Moisten corners of pastry squares. Bring 2 opposite corners up over apple and pinch together. Repeat with remaining corners, and pinch edges of pastry to seal. Place dumplings in ungreased rectangular baking dish, 13 X 9 X 2 inches.
3. Heat remaining ingredients except cream to boiling in 2-quart saucepan, stirring occasionally. Boil 3 minutes. Carefully pour around dumplings.
4. Bake about 40 minutes, spooning syrup over dumplings 2 or 3 times, until crust is golden and apples are tender when pierced with a small knife or toothpick. Serve warm or cool with cream.
*Spreads with at least 65% vegetable oil can be used.
