“Snack”urday: Apple Cream Cheese Pie Pockets

Some of the best recipes come from me and my kids sitting in the kitchen chatting about what we are gonna make.  I say, lets make something with apples…and then the ball starts rolling.  One will say how about pie, the other will say I want ice cream.  We start putting pieces together until the light comes on above one of our heads and we are like “That is it!”

Back in the day…back when there was 1 kid and not 3.  We used to love to order Applebees to go and my hubby would order the Apple Chimicheesecake for dessert.  It is this OMG dessert with Apples, Cream cheese, and cinnamon sugar all wrapped up, fried and served with ice cream.

That is where the inspiration for tonight’s dessert came from, but I wanted something easy.  Something completely unintimidating that I could throw in the oven at any given moment.  I think we were successful!  Check out our delicious creation.
