    First time making an apple crisp. It was fabulous. Some family came over for coffee and waited for this while it was in the oven. They loved it. It is a must try recipe. Even without the whipped cream. We just poured heavy cream on it. This recipe is keeper. I have had apple crisp before, but not like this!

    Love the bourbon cream sauce. I will also try with my hot chocolate!

    This recipe is wonderful! It is better than apple pie, apple dumplings, and all the other apple crisp recipes. My husband doesn't really like cooked apples, but this is his new favorite fruit dessert. I followed the recipe exactly, except I served it with a big scoop of vanilla bean ice cream instead of the bourbon cream. Thank you Neelys!
