Very nice summer desert. Light with the fresh tang of lemon. I made this exactly as directed with the minor exception of adding a whipped topping at the end before topping with addtional crushed candies. I was very pleasantly surprised at the way the candies in the desert melted into it. This was a big hit with the DGSs after a day at the pool. Thanks Pam a very nice desert.
