Baked Apples with Amaretto

Description
I have more cookbooks... but many do not have recipes on page 17. It's usually some part of an intro to the cookbook. Here is a Page 17 recipe:

For a really special presentation, roast these apples in individual apple bakers, small ceramic dishes made expressly for that purpose.

Ingredients

 * 8 baking apples, such as Jonathan, JonaGold, Ida Red, Fuji, and Cortland, cored
 * vegetable oil for greasing pan
 * about 1½ cups dark brown sugar
 * about ⅓ cup amaretto liqueur
 * lightly sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (optional)

Directions

 * 1) Preheat the oven to 350°F.
 * 2) Place the apples in a lightly oiled baking pan just large enough to hold them in a single layer.
 * 3) If necessary, trim the bottoms so the apples stand upright.
 * 4) Sprinkle 2 to 3 tablespoons sugar in the center and on the top of each apple.
 * 5) Drizzle 1 or 2 teaspoons of amaretto in the center and over each apple.
 * 6) Bake until the apples are very tender and the sugar has melted, 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the size of the apples.
 * 7) To serve, place the hot apples in individual bowls and top with some liquid from the pan.
 * 8) If desired, serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
