Hi

I did the pie with cherry pie filling, omitting the brown sugar and cinnamon and you should see how scrumptious it turned out. My daughter said it tasted like a cheesecake. I am also going to use a blueberry filling as well; Steve's graduation is in a few weeks and I'll take those two over for his party...the cherry and the blueberry.

I am so happy with that recipe. It was the best I ever made. Many, many thanks.:) :) :)

my heart thanks you too, my thighs and hips however have this to say :p

JUST KIDDING!! I don't care about my thighs and hips!!!! My tastebuds are my most treasured body parts (body parts? where did I rationalize that one???) LOL I will fix this this week for sure - my son is a sweet nut (he takes after his step-mom that way and then I have to get all her recipes!!!)

Thanks KAT!!! And thanks cookies for the info about the pie!

Hi Kat

I just such rave reviews for the variation I made using cherry pie filling, I am going to make that and your original apple crumb pie recipe for Steve's graduation party. My daughter also suggested that blueberry pie filling would be a nice variation too. This forum is so helpful. I just love it. :D :D :D :D

I made both the apple and variation with cherry pie filling today for Steve's graduation party tomorrow. It should go over very well because my daughter says it tastes a lot like cheesecake. I'll probably be ready to drop with all the running around but I am so proud of him. He is graduating from h.s. and as a freshman went to summer course at Yale, next year Princeton and last year Georgetown. Now in the fall he will be going to Long Island to college and taking political science.

:D :D :D Thank you soooo much for the lovely recipe.

Hi there

I made both the apple and cherry versions and boy did they go over big. Steve is my grandson and I thank you for the wonderful compliment. It was so hot at the graduation I thought I'd fall over and the poor kids were in those mortar boards and gowns. A few threw beachballs and had them taken away from them. I thought..oh, let them have a good time...it's a big deal for kids to graduate. One girl got up and ran to the front and picked up the confiscated beachball and everyone in the entire place got up and cheered! Next, year the younger one graduates and he is a little dickens so I'll bet there is cap throwing at that one!

Hugs,
Eileen
