"Sounds interesting! Posting here for ZWT. . .recipe from cooks.com. Feel free to sub pre-made whipped cream in this recipe to make it come together more quickly. They suggest serving it as a side dish to fowl or pork, but I think it sounds more like a dessert LOL. I think with the colors, it would be pretty on the table at Thanksgiving or Christmas."
