It is extremely simple to make - and to customize. Use any fruit filling of your choice - or kick some of the sugar for a fresh fruit topping. (Yikes there is a whole lot of sugar in this one... but so good.) I also leave out most of the powdered sugar. I'm pretty sure it's purpose is to make the middle "stand" up better, so yeah, if I especially don't care how it ends up looking, I leave it out all together.
I'm never sure about the whole graham cracker amount. Is one cracker a sheet of 4 or just one of the fourths.. I think it means the whole sheet. This last time I made it I kind of just winged it with the crust and I think I made it a bit too thick.
Anyways, on to the recipe and pictures. The recipe shown is for an 8x8 pan. I usually double and put in a 9x13. I know it isn't quite right, but it works.
I've had several different posts rolling around in my head. Hopefully I will actually get them from head to screen soon.
On a completely different note - if you've never been to the drive in - I completely recommend going. The picture quality isn't the greatest, but it is so much fun. My best friend and I went last week. It was so much fun to be able to talk during the movie and just hang out. She lives about 6 hours away, so we don't get a whole lot of time together. And we do enjoy watching movies together. :) Oh, and for the record we saw Cowboys and Aliens and Harry Potter. I enjoyed both. (We had both seen HP already, so we really got to discuss during that one.) The only problem with both of the movies was that they are pretty dark (as in lighting), so it was a little hard to see the action at times. Still so very worth it. It was $5 a person - for two just released movies. We got popcorn and drinks, and those weren't too expensive either. So, yeah, if you are close to a drive in, definitely check it out.
Wow - that was supposed to be a small 1 -2 sentence aside. Oh well.
