WI Cheesehead's Note:

This recipe is so easy and so rich! I got it from my grandma, who keeps one in the freezer for when she has unexpected company. She can pull it out and slice a piece off without any thawing. Her recipe uses 1 (8 oz) Cool Whip, but I changed that. Prep time includes freezing time.
