I made this yesterday and chilled it, but could not keep my spoon out of it, it's just wonderful, it's on the thick side but fluffy, I might give this a try using Cool Whip topping in place of the whipped cream, my grape-loving DH said he will have this every week now! I love this recipe! thanks L4C!...Kitten:)
