Grandma Millie Schwalbe's apple pie
1/2 pound butter
1/2 pound cream cheese 2 cups sifted flour

Mix together and refrigerate overnight.

Next day, roll out half of the dough to fit a 10" pan. Fit dough into pan.

Slice Granny Smith (or June or some other tart, firm apple) into at least eight pieces. Mix apple pieces with cinnamon, sugar or substitute and, if you like, throw in a handful of raisins. Use spices to taste, too. Put apple mixture into crust. Use plenty of apples; the filling needs to be high as they will shrink when they cook. Top with the other half of the dough, rolled out into a circle large enough to top the pie. With a sharp knife, make tiny slits in top. Bake for 40-50 minutes in 350 degree Fahrenheit oven.
