This was good - and I would make again. I had 3 lbs of red grapes, so the ratio of grapes to sauce was a bit off, but the flavor combo was good. I used 3/4 cup of the topping, seemed like a lot of sugar to use it all. For us I think it was just right. (Used the rest for baked apples later.) Absolutely give the topping at least an hour to set as it absorbs moisture from the sauce making the texture of this dish that much better. Thank-you Chef #446539 for sharing this with us.
