This was a big hit at Thanksgiving - Sweet Cider Apple Pie, winner of Crisco's 2010 pie contest >>

VERY yummy. I didn't have a carrier for my 10" pie plate, so got creative and made it in my 9" springform pan - very impressive looking. Served Meryl's caramel sauce alongside - that got used on other desserts as well smileys/smile.gifhttp://www.piecouncil.org/Recipes/ViewRecipe/?id=134

I also made Tootsie's Chocolate Pie posted by Kendall -- DEElicious taste but too sweet...

I will definitely make this again, but cut the sugar to 2 cups - the texture and creaminess was just perfect.

[lana-in-fl]

Wow, what a table! Amazing!

 

[cheezz]

Food's easy - it doesn't move around and make funny faces *g*

 

[florisandy]

Ah, but the lighting/alignment/perspective is sometimes the tricky part! Do you say

"Say cheezz" cheezz?

 

[joe]

I agree, WOW. What a wonderful desert spread.

 

[joe]

OMG., I misspelled dessert. ON THANKSGIVING WEEKEND!

 

[orchid]

LOL, and it always happens on the uneditable line, right? Never to be

corrected and therefor left for the whole world to see! Makes me laugh when I think of the pressure we put on ourselves.

 

[cheezz]

HA! Well, of course!

 

[cheezz]

Yes, the lighting/alignment, etc. - I am NOT a professional, just trying to capture the feel smileys/smile.gif
