Whipped cream does about as well. Yes, and it does have to be *good* ice cream if it's vanilla; to me, artificial vanilla ruins nearly anything, but eespecially good warm apple pie. But have you ever tried good butter pecan or cinnamon ice cream on apple pie? Both are paradisial, especially if the pie is made with tart apples and not oversweetened or overspiced. --- GEcho 1.00 * Origin: The BadBoy BBS/Louisville, KY./(502)375-3677 (1:2320/150) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 189 COOKING Ref: FA100108 Date: 05/19/98 From: MARTY ADKINS Time: 08:42am \/To: RUTH HANSCHKA (Read 0 times) Subj: Re: Long RH> Oh Dawgfood, French Spaghettios!
