beth this is the spatula I was talking about! I love it and want one. is it a particular brand? silicone or rubber?

[CookingAndCrafting]

@Fitange That is my santa one. I got it a few years ago at Kmart. No brand that I can remember. I think it is rubber because it was cheap

Yummy!! Looked to me like that crust was *way* too dry going in the pan, but when I saw the filling I knew why. I could probably eat a whole pan of these.
