I found this recipe years ago and it it one of my family's most requested "repeat" recipes. I hope you enjoy it! I like to make this and refrigerate it until the next day. It reheats well, but you have to add some milk to get it to thin up some. It is VERY thick. **A word of warning, don't freeze it. I made that mistake and had to throw it away. It doesn't freeze well.
