I have been making this for along time got it from a co-worker when I worked at Kresge's 41 yrs ago. At first it didn't come out right an no one would eat it except one of my brothers. and me of course. Since I figure out what I did wrong the first time my brother loves it. and every Thanksgiving, Christmas he asks me to make it just for him.
