My memory seems to say that the original recipe called for 3 boards of matzo, 4 apples, 2 eggs and lots of sugar. Since I am not feeding a family of 6 like my mom, I cut it back. Then since I lost the recipe and Mom is a long-distance call I found that it is hard to mess this up when you do it by feel.
