APPLE PECAN DESSERT

APPLE PECAN DESSERT Food Recipes, This great dessert is a combination of three different recipes. Under the rich, nutty, cookie layer is a layer of ooey-gooey cinnamon apples. Served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, it is just delicious. Oh by the way, did you know that you can buy vanilla ice cream with sprinkles IN it? You can see the sprinkles in this photo. I had no idea this product was even available (I thought I bought plain vanilla). Needless to say, even though there is a gallon of this ice cream in the freezer, Hubby has written his request on the grocery list (that is always on the front of the fridge), he wrote "vanilla ice cream NO SPRINKLES". He is mighty particular about his ice cream.

TOPPING
1 cup all purpose flour
½ cup butter, room temperature
1 cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 egg
½ cup chopped pecans (divided)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cream ½ cup of butter with 1 cup of brown sugar and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon until well mixed; add 1 egg and mix well. Stir in the flour, baking soda and ¼ cup of the pecans. Mix until smooth, batter will be very thick. Set aside

APPLE FILLING
Peel and slice 4 large granny smith apples. Toss the sliced apples with ½ cup brown sugar + ½ cup white sugar + ¼ cup all purpose flour + ½ teaspoon of cinnamon. Make sure all of the apples are well coated and place them in a greased 10" pan or 10" deep pie plate. Spread with topping and bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
Let baked dessert sit for at least 30 minutes before you serve. When it first comes out of the oven, the apple filling will appear to be thin. However, as it cools, the sauce in the filling will thicken considerably. Serve warm (or room temperature) with ice cream (with no sprinkles).
