"This is a quick and easy dessert that Mom made frequently, but I couldn't find the recipe. Today was my lucky day -- my sister-in-law, Michele Thornburg, came up with a copy of it. She thinks it originated in an old "Betty Crocker Cookbook." We had Apple Crisp for supper tonight -- still warm from the oven with vanilla ice cream on top. Scrumptious!"
