Walnut Apple Dessert

By: Diann Mallehan 
"The neighbor who shared this recipe with me predicted that I'd serve it often, just as she has for more than 30 years. It's easy to put together and is wonderfully fruity. I like to serve it with ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. -Diann Mallehan, Grand Rapids, Michigan"

I liked this, but it was pretty dry. Kind of like a cake, but not as moist.
