This was really good. Not very hlight, but the weather called for a dessert like this :) And it gave me an excuse to buy another bottle of Grand Marnier. I'll make it again for special ocasions.

Scrumptious! Surprisingly easy to prepare and special enough to serve company. The ingredients work to make for lush and lovely, the texture smooth and creamy making for a dessert that will be seeing repeats at our house. Made as directed with great results. Thank you Julie, we enjoyed.
