On my way to 100 recipes in 100 days.. Here is recipe 45: Snickerdoodle Apple Crisp!
I really love Snickerdoodle Cookies. I am not sure why, but I don’t make them often. And my husband loves apple desserts. This is the perfect combo for our house.
I had my niece over for the evening (the sweet girl in the middle). She and my girls played and played all night and then of course I had to load them up with sugar before bed. They all cleaned their bowls.
I thought this dessert was wonderful. I topped it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and enjoyed it warm. I also convinced myself that it was a perfectly acceptable breakfast the next morning.

Should the baking powder be baking soda?
I double checked my recipe and baking powder is correct. :). Enjoy your dessert
