Made this last night to have along with some angel food cake. Really really good. I only did half because it was just 2 of us and I had a lot left over. Thanks, I'm sure I'll make again.

This was VERY good! Made this exactly as posted and it came out just like what we get when we go to the local buffet. Husband and son kept sneaking back to the fridge to eat the leftovers!! Thanks for the great recipe!
