Combining two blogging events into one delicious dessert
I threw this together for dessert the other night and it tastes JUST LIKE apple pie a la mode. This could also be created with cinnamon graham crackers if you don’t have any cinnamon cookies. By crumbling the cookies over the warm applesauce, they warm up and soak up some of the applesauce. This is literally so good and so easy to make.
Fake Apple Pie A La Mode – by ME!
Chunky homemade applesauce – check out my Apple A Day entry for recipe
Cinnamon cookies – check out my Master Baker entry for recipe
1 scoop vanilla ice cream – I used Tofutti
Heat applesauce in microwave until warm, about 45 seconds.
Crumble cookies over warm applesauce.
Top with scoop of ice cream.
ENJOY!

These are such an elegant treat especially for guests. I like using a cream cheese filling for them!
Yep, that’s how I’ve always seen it, with cream cheese filling. It’s definitely a great way to use up leftover frosting though. I’m sure any cream-cheese based frosting would be delicious.
I love the idea of an inside-out chocolate covered strawberry! I will definitely be trying this!
So pretty. I wonder if nutella would work too.

These are so great! I love the idea (and the party theme is inspired). I posted a link for my edible crafts column to your blog at ediblecrafts.craftgossip.com. Hope to bring you a few more clicks! Thanks for sharing, Meaghan
Love it! I’m impressed by those that can keep “leftover” frosting around the kitchen – it’s usually eaten up by my housemates before any can be put away.
