Classic and simple - warm tender apples, which pair perfect with ice cold vanilla ice cream. The topping is very judicious, so I would double the amount, but had a nice toasted-oatmeal-cookie flavor. I liked the subtle sweetness from the apple juice.

Apples never let you down: You can get them year-round, and you can use just about any variety in this quintessential always-works dessert. With this kind of dependability, who needs chocolate?
