Gleaned from recipezaar.com submission by Klaus Alexander Seistrup1. I have seen this recipe a million times but have never made it. Perhaps my time is drawing near because I still don't believe it can possibly taste like apple pie!

I'll never tell......Mmmmmmm good!


I truly need to try this, jett! Thanks for the five,

So glad you posted this - the recipe isn't on the back of the Ritz box anymore, so I thought it was gone forever! Although there's probably a ritz.com or something, now that I think about it.


I just have a really hard time thinking that this could possibly taste like an apple pie! Please tell me it does, malory because then I'll actually make it!

Hi, Lacrenshaw! Yes, thanks for this old, old recipe. My mom used to make this when we were children and it does taste and look just like apple pie! 5UP
