My kids and I thought it tasted great. Used a combo of granny smith apples and gala. They were quite large so I ended up having to add a bit more of all the ingredients. Doubled the syrup but didn't double the topping so I stuck wanting more of the topping while eating this. Think I'll just double it from now on. Great taste though.

I was walking the dogs in the park and DD rang begging to have a taste of this dessert. As i had made 3 small ones I said yes and she has given it 5 stars !! I made no changes to the recipe at all. Made for ZWT 6.
