This is so good. A slice with ice cream is heavenly. We fianlly have this down
to an assembly to make it becasue it is so popular. NOTE: My MIL used to have a
n apple tree and made these every fall . We would still be eating them in the s
pring at Easter, so I know this recipe freezes a long time. She always got rave
reviews for this one.
