APPLE TAPIOCA (MOM'S SECRET RECIPE)

Steps:

• 1. Mix all ingredients, and simmer for five minutes, add apples, stirring often. Simmer until apples are tender, about twelve to fifteen minutes. I prefer to use a double boiler, and let it simmer longer until apples are soft. No burning in the pan this way.
• 2. Serve this warm over scoop(s) of the best vanilla ice cream,or over pound cake.
• 3. I found this silly picture of mom and Paul, and it seemed so appropriate, I had to include it with this recipe! Happy times,taken more than 25 years ago.
• 4. This morning I had an idea, and knowing there was puff pastry in the freezer, I got it out and let it thaw. Then I pulled out my deep dish apple pie plate, and cut the puff pastry to form a normal shaped pie crust. I spooned the cold apple tapioca into it, leaving room on top for several strips of puff pastry which I twisted and "using water on the ends pressed it onto the outer edges of the pie crust". I baked at 350 degrees for about 40-45 mins. checking every five minutes during the last 15 mins, to be sure it was not burning. It looks delicious! Now I need to buy some ice cream to go on top.
