Comments
A local tea room here in Tucson, AZ served a modified version of this recipe. As three of my friends and I sat there trying to dissect the ingredients, the waitress approached us and ask us if we wanted the recipe, as they were discontinuing serving it. DUH! So we had it! Except, that I took the recipe home and altered it severely to suit my taste buds. It is now one of my family's favorites and I make it often. It keeps refrigerated for many days, and I have even caught my daughter eating it for breakfast.
