Praline Apple Pizza Cookies
"I haven't tried this one yet, but it looks great! Found in the Birmingham Times, by Evelyn Criswell, a local facorite who owns Criswell Cakes and Catering, as well as Evelyn's Gourmet Recipes. The recipe says to serve with 1 cup of Evelyn's "Praline Indulgence Sauce," but I don't have the recipe for that. Recipe #55041 sounds a lot like the ingredients list, especially if you added a bit of dark rum."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I got married to my high school sweetheart in August 06 at the ripe old age of 21, and my husband Luke and I just moved to Birmingham, AL from Auburn. He's in his second year of dental school at UAB. I have a BFA in Graphic Design, and I'm a designer at Time Inc and doing freelance design work on the side. I'm planning to go to grad school for a Master's of Fine Arts in Book Arts some time or another. I had deferred because I think the timing will be better once Luke gets out of school and perhaps I might not need to commute the hour over there.
Getting married and getting HALF of a refrigerator instead of sharing one with seven other girls really ignited a cooking fire in me!
Lately I've been trying to cut out the sugar, which is hard, because Luke likes sugary pancakes and cereal, and because I like baking things. I need to quit baking! Trying to lose the newlywed nine so I can fit into my winter clothes.
