| Aside from the great name (apple dappy apple dappy apple dappy), this is a very tasty recipe. It's easy to put together. It tastes sort of like a cobbler, but in the form of a dessert roll. I'd suggest making the apple filling earlier and let it cool a lot more than the recipe indicates. My filling was still warm and started to melt the dough. But it still worked. I might also add some cinnamon. It's odd that there no spices. |
| I really wanted this to be good. I made my own ricotta, I sepnt ages pitting and slicing cherries, I used phyllo dough and lots of butter. But it just didn't work as well together as all of the component parts.
There was too much filling for the phyllo dough, which might have contributed to some sogginess. But it was also lacking any strong flavors - ricotta and cooked cherries came out pretty mild, and there were no other spices in the recipe as written. |
| This is a wonderful variation on strawberry shortcake using a meringue instead of shortcake. It was so good - the meringue was simple to make, although it crumbled a lot. I'm not sure that the instruction to let it cool while rolled in a towel is a good one. A 250 degree oven is manageable even on a hot day.
When I try this again, I'm thinking I'll make the meringue as separate separate rounds and top them with the strawberries and whipped cream for a less crumbly as well as less dramatic presentation. |
