My sister-in-law makes amazing pumpkin pie – or so I’ve heard since I’ve never tasted it. (Not a pumpkin pie fan). So she brings her pies every holiday and I’m responsible for making the alternative sweets.
My favorites to make are Chocolate Cream Cheese Pie and Apple Crisp, and the apple crisp recipe won when deciding on a recipe for this post.
I love the mix of warm apples, cinnamon/sugar and crumbly topping, especially warm from the oven!
