Apple "custard" Dessert

"This is a very good apple dessert sorta like apple crisp made very simply with a cake mix. For those who do not like coconut you can omit without a problem and add nuts or raisins. I use a mixture of granny smith and gala apples and slice them directly into my baking dish. This is a dessert company always loves at our house and made frequently in the fall season. This has been in my recipe collection forever and I no longer recall where I found it. Wish I did so I could give the person credit."

  1. I followed the recipe as written. I made it for Christmas Eve dinner. Some really liked it and some only thought it was okay so I gave it four stars. Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. What a delicious, quick and easy dessert! I made it with coconut and will try it with nuts next time. I did a combination of granny smith and empire apples because that is what I had on hand. It was sweet, but not too sweet, and we ate it warm from the oven topped with vanilla ice cream-talk about yummy! I think everybody had seconds! This will be a perfect quick dessert for apple season or potlucks. I think that it would taste yummy with other fruit like pears or peaches too! I made this for Spring PAC 2009-thanks for a new family go to dessert!

I've been cooking ever since I can remember. As a little girl I pulled a chair up to the cooktop so I could reach. In this day and age people would be mortified of this :-) I'm what I call a basic cook. I like simple, good food with more of a down-home flavor. No exotic cooking for this southern gal. My favorite foods are probably what most consider 'comfort foods'. And there is typically always a dessert in the house.
