This recipe was a staple at my friend Kina's house, and now that I have the recipe, it has become a favorite and often requested recipe for me to bring to family dinners. It is so easy to make, and so incredibly good, you will surely make it one of your 'go to' recipes also! You can omit (yeah, right!) amaretto if you increase water to 3/4 cup and add 1/2 t almond extract.
