So here's the recipe: Apple strudel, I love everything with apples and I've made applestrudel  several recipes but I love this. The dough is so good that it was almost so much I rolled  (a very thin dough), but the second time I was more careful. I hope to make other strudel  with cherries soon . I hope you like it as we all  loved here. Note: I have to say I made this strudel  one day and I could not take pictures  !! they ate it at night.
