It’s the season for sweets and treats, and one of our favorites in my family is a rich chocolate pudding pie. The secret to the pie is the pie crust: if it fails, the pie just doesn’t taste the same. Pie crust can be a difficult task to take on, especially if you’ve never made…

Weekend Dessert: Rustic Apple Tart

in Citrus and Cream, Eat, Recipes on 10/25/13
