Bravo! I think that refrigeration step really helps. My daughter admitted to me that she has never tried apple pie (15 yrs old), because its only offered on thanksgiving, and who would forgo pumpkin? I think I should correct this, its unimaginable to me.
What recipe did you follow for the apple parts?

I used the recipe I always use for apple pie. It's from an older Pillsbury cookbook. My review is here <a href="http://www.cookbooker.com/recipe/21576/perfect-apple-pie">http://www.cookbooker.com/recipe/21576/perfect-apple-pie</a>

We'll have this apple pie and a chocolate mousse pie that is made with gluten free graham crackers for our friend with Celiac Disease.
