YUM...

Desert was great!

Typical Cal, I didn’t follow the recipe...

I mixed up the biscuit ingredients and used a quart of my apple pie filling that I had canned, threw in a handful of my home dried raisins. Added just enough milk to get the mixture about right and baked at 375 for about 35 minutes.

For the caramel topping, I never buy brown sugar - I add back the blackstrap molasses that they remove in the refining process - instant brown sugar. I added a bit of butter and the milk, brought it to a boil that I could just barely stir down and then removed from the stove. Then added a bit of vanilla and poured it on top, then used a fork and poked a bunch of holes so it would also be absorbed...

Well, it was a hit - we ate half the whole batch, and my wife announced that she was eating her share of the remaining at breakfast daughter said ‘Me too!’

So, I would call that a resounding success... Thanks to you and Granny!
