As you can see by my recipe title, I love this sauce on EVERYTHING... apples, ice cream, fresh hot apple pie, chocolate cake, apple crisp, any grilled summer fruit... Let your imagination go wild. But, whatever you serve it on, there will be no left-overs... guaranteed. This also makes a lovely, economical gift presented in an old-fashioned canning jar for a new neighbor, an elderly friend or starving college kids. Give this a try. You won't be disappointed. Remember to refrigerate left-overs or gifts.
