Chunky Cinnamon Applesauce

8 medium tart apples, peeled and quartered
1 Cup water
1 Cup sugar
1/4 Cup red-hot candies

Place apples and water in a 5 qt. saucepan. Cover and cook over medium low heat for 20 minutes or until tender. Mash the apples. Add sugar and candies. Cook, uncovered, until sugar and candies are dissolved. Remove from the heat; cool. Refrigerate until serving. Yields 6 Cups.

This is so easy and delicious. You can leave out the red-hots if you want.
