Got this recipe out of a garage sale-find cookbook which was put out by the Crisco Co. It's very versatile in that you can add or subtract topping ingredients as you like. I thought peaches might be interesting to try.

The picture caught my eye as I looked for a dessert to make with what I had on hand. Being versatile grabbed me. I made this with some canned apricots (drained and chopped) I will try it with the apples next. Peaches sound good too, maybe pineapple. Oh yes everyone loved it. My neighbor asked for the recipe, said she was going to try it with italian plums from her tree this summer. Thanks for sharing.1Reply
