This stuff is a symphony of tastes, textures, and happy memories of my days growing up in the deep south. HOWEVER...the apple and cranberries take this superb dish to new heights!!! If you like the tang of apple and cranberries, you should love this recipe. I ended up using the yeast rolls I made for another PAC baby and I'll tell you what...SHAZAM!!! Delight in every bite. Oh, I can't wait to show off to my friends and family with this little jewel of a recipe. Thanks for posting. Made for Pick A Chef, 2010. -
