Since we are having a cold spell right now, (well, cold for CA. LOL)this was great! I will definitely make for the Fall/Winter Holiday season. I did have to use pecans instead of walnuts, cuz they needed to be used up. I also used unsalted butter. This might also be nice with a graham cracker crust. Thanks for posting, flirtyfunchick. Made for PAC 2010.
