Mama's Kitchen (Hope)'s Note:

Sinfully yummy! I use my Caramel Sauce Recipe #181917 but you could use your own or store bought. Just make sure to use a really good one as it really shines here!

I loved it! I did substitute cardamom for the cinnamon and was really happy with the results. Excellent recipe. Thanks!

This was great. I thought it might be like a crumble, but was pleasantly surprised at the crust crisping up. I cut the sugar back a little bit and halved the butter, and it still worked nicely. Add a little low fat vanilla ice cream for a real treat!

Very tasty and my hubbie and guests loved it. They will eat it whenever I make it! It was very easy to make.
