This was really rich.... but delicious. I was a little confused about which amounts of sugar went to which section but it came out good anyways.

I changed this up a bit because I was serving it on the lake...I used a store bought AF cake and cubed it into the bottom of a casserole dish...then followed the recipe as written. The kids loved this, and adults raved too. This is so nice because it is sweet, but it's also light, which makes it perfect for a hot summer day. I'll definetely be making this again this summer.
