Sometimes it is a challenge for me to come up with something for just one or a couple of people. I hate to serve the same dessert two days in the row to the same guests and I surely don’t need it sitting around here to tempt me everyday. I have been working on this recipe for awhile. I am been tweaking it as to get it just the right sweetness. I feel like I have perfected it. So I bring this lovely dessert that serves 4 to you, however it works great if you want to scale it down for just one as well. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
