Oh Lordy!! Forget the diet! This I would not be able to resist. Looks absolutely scrumptious. I don’t know whether to thank you or berate you for this recipe. I’ll thank you and wait to have guests so I don’t eat the whole thing. 🙂

I love recipes that can be used for more than one thing! Lately I have been into cherries and chocolate, but in oatmeal and smoothies. Next… dessert!
