Apple Pie Baked in the Apples | Chronicles of a Domestic Dilettante. As you all know, I am very much a beginner in the kitchen.

Then right before we were ready to serve we plunked on the marshmallows and put her under the broiler to toast up. You could even take more shortcuts and use a pre-made graham cracker crust and use pre-packaged pudding {you’d need 8 snack packs for that} What to do: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
