This may be a holiday dessert, Karla, but thank our lucky stars...there are a lot of holidays...New Years, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, President's Day, Grandparents' Day, Fridays...you get the picture! Thanks for posting this...I had almost forgotten how wonderful this is. It's a rich dessert, so just a little slice is a piece of heaven!!

Thank you, Donna. I am going through my cookbook and posting the recipes I love the most so that I have a record of them for my daughters and son and grandchildren. LOL. I just bought my girls gift certificates so they can see how great this is. I am enjoying it, especially when people like you take the time to post a reply. Thank you!
