I liked this but I wasn't crazy about the texture of the applesauce being the cobbler in this recipe. I like it much better with chopped apples. I used unsweetened applesauce, and if you use it I would advise using 1 c. brown sugar instead of 1/2 c. It was real tart. I had with whipped cream, but I think it would be better with ice cream. I may make again sometime with chunky applesauce with cinnamon. Thanks Karissa! Made for Newest Zaar Stars Tag Game
