Red Hot Applesauce

You can use any variety of apple, or a combination.  I like Jonagolds (cross between Jonathans and Golden Delicious) or Jonathans.

Peel and quarter apples.  Remove the core and stem.  Put in a sauce pan and add water (about 1/3 to ½ way up the apples).  Boil until the apples are soft.  Mash with a hand masher or beat with a mixer.  Add some red hot candies to taste.  Stir until dissolved.
