  2. I hadn't made it in years, and probably don't have a written recipe for it, so I was glad cuzn Pat posted on FB that she was making one. I told her to send me that recipe! Her son Scott got a whole cake to take back to college...waaay back when...and he managed to eat the whole thing before he made it back to school. Allegedly, of course:)
