My hubby told me after dinner on last Friday evening he was going to make a surprise for me. I left him watching golf in the kitchen and went into the family room to watch a movie. Within minutes the aroma of cinnamon and sugar was floating into my space. Shortly thereafter he appeared with a dessert dish with a square of the most delicious dessert I had had in a time. Try it and see what you think. It was so good, so quick and easy that I made it for breakfast on Sunday morning. Served it with fresh strawberries. He found the recipe posted on FB.
