Mom's handwritten recipe, found among the hundreds of recipes I've cut out of magazines and newspapers. Sounds easy and tasty, I have not made it myself, but I intend to try it. Her suggestion was to add green coloring to the topping, for decoraton for the Christmas holiday. I am not sure I want to do that, and I usually do things "my way"!
