--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1       lb           Commercial filo sheets
                        -----FILLING-----
   8                    Apples*
     1/2   c            Sugar
     1/2   t            Cinnamon
     1/2   t            Allspice
   1       T            Cornstarch
     1/4   c            Currants or raisins
     1/2   c            Walnuts
     1/2   c            Butter -- melted
                        -----TOPPING-----
   1       c            Powdered sugar

  *Note- Apples should be cored, peeled and chopped.  If desired, 2 cups
  canned apples (drained) may be substituted.
  Defrost frozen filo to room temperature, 2 to 4 hours.  Mix filling in a
  bowl tossing ingredients with a spoon.  Set aside.
      Lay 5 sheets filo flat, one on top of each other, with a little melted
  butter brushed between the sheets.  Spread 1 cup of filling along one end.
  Roll filo over the apple filling so you will have a long filled tube.
  Fold side edges over 1/2" so filling won't fall out.  Continue rolling.
      Place in a buttered baking pan or cookie sheet.  Brush tops generously
  with melted butter.  Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.  Sift powdered sugar
  over tops and sides as soon as it is taken out of the oven and while still
  hot.  When cool, cut into 2" pieces and serve.
