This sounds absolutely amazing!! Will be making this soon since this is one of our favorite flavors.

I have a question though love, you say to reserve 1 cup of the brown sugar topping, but you don't say what to do with it. I'm going to assume it's add it on top prior to baking?? Let me know when you get a chance...
