This is adapted from another recipe. I love frozen confections, even in wintertime. This is lighter than some of the heavier, gooey-er holiday desserts. (Plus I'm not so great with pie crusts and pastries. lol) Sometimes I allow filling to be "streaky" with whipped topping rather than completely folded in.
