Tips & Comments
I just ate this and it was SO SO SO GOOD! Other than using pecans instead of pine nuts (just what I had), I followed the recipe exactly. I really wouldn't change a thing. Seriously, it's amazing.
wow, heaven on a plate!
Can hardly stop to write comments as the recipe is making my mouth water and my BNS is in need of roasting!
