My late friend Marcel used to make these Pick a Pie Filling Squares with different types of fruity pie filling every time she made it!
That is what I love most about this recipe. I can use any pie filling I have on hand or am in the mood for and so can you! Choice is everything to me and I bet it is for you too!
