Dip the rim of 4 Martini glasses in a saucer of water, then into a saucer or small dish of golden caster sugar. Pop the glasses into the fridge until ready to serve.
Warm the apple juice in a small saucepan with the cinnamon stick. Bring to the boil, then turn off the heat and leave to go cold. Once cold, discard the cinnamon stick and pour into a jug.
Put the Cognac, Disaronno, Madeira wine and lemon juice into a cocktail shaker with a large handful of ice. Shake together until the mixture is chilled. Strain into your glasses, top up with the spiced apple juice and serve immediately.

1 cup dried breadcrumbs
3/4 cup grated peeled red apple (1 to 2 apples)
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup pitted prunes, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons Armagnac or other good-quality brandy
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for sprinkling
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
5 sheets phyllo dough (at least 11 by 14 inches), thawed if frozen
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Confectioners' sugar and whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack in upper third. Gently stir together breadcrumbs, apple, raisins, prunes, honey, brandy, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Set filling aside.
Brush a sheet of phyllo with butter. Top with 2 sheets, and brush with butter; repeat. Spread with filling. Starting at a short end, roll to enclose filling. Transfer, seam side down, to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
